Exhibitionist 2 – Favorite Knitting Literature

Posted on | March 16, 2007 | 2 Comments

Maya’s challenge for Exhibitionist this week is to show our favorite knitting/crotcheting literature. Here’s mine:

I have several knitting books which I adore, particularly Melanie Falick’s Weekend Knitting, Joelle Hoverson’s Last Minute Knitted Gifts, and Teva Durham’s Loop-d-Loop and the list that I would like to own is much longer (and growing steadily – I finally saw a real live copy of Stefanie Japel’s Fitted Knits tonight).  But what I turn to the most are my copies of Interweave Knits. I never fail to find something that I love in each issue, and usually there are several patterns that make me swoon. The instructions are clearly written and easily followed and the articles providing in-depth study on various techniques are invaluable. I wish that I could keep them in pristine condition forever – unfortunately that won’t happen. I generally go to bed with one (or two, or five) either along with or in place of my evening reading, and Tad laughs at me for reading the same magazines for the hundredth time :)

Happy Friday everyone – It’s a cold and rainy one here, but Tad and I are at the start of a week “off” – woo-hoo!  Not really off-off, we have some big projects slated for this week – I’ll give you a sneak peek soon, maybe tomorrow!
