Because you are passionate about knitting, I thought you'd love to hear about the rerelease of a wonderful novel called Sadie Shapiro's Knitting Book. In this heartwarming tale, senior-citizen Sadie submits 50 of her highly original knitting patterns to an ailing publishing firm, and the course of her life changes. Not only is her book published, but Sadie becomes the peoples' darling, the pure-gold TV talk show guest who knits herself into the fabric of myth. it is a big-hearted, moving, hilariously irresistible book.

To view more about the book, or to order, please visit the blog at

I am working on Laura Rintala's LACY THONG and am having trouble with Row 25. It does not come out right. Can someone please fix this. I am really interested in the pattern because I have several people on my Christmas list that would really get a kick out of a hand knitted thong.

Thanks,

Here are the correct dimensions for the gift bag: 8.5 inches across the bottom and 11 inches in height and 3 inches deep. Plenty big enough for a mid-size project.

The bag measurements are wrong, I think. The bag is about 5 or 6 inches wide and about 3 inches deep and about 10 inches tall. I fit five or six balls/skiens of yarn in there no problem!

Are you sure these are 4 7/8" by 2.5"? There's no way to get a skein of yarn into a bag that's less than five inches high and with a circumference of 5" that I can see. Am I missing something?
