Scottish Knits/Scottish Heritage Knits

ClaudiaS@12 — Tue, 22 Jan 2013 15:41:43 GMT

These books are both by Martin Storey. Are both the same book or not? One of the models on the cover of Scottish Knits is the same as the model on the cover of Scottish Heritage Knits.

Hella Problems - Lene Holme Samsoe Pattern

SoCalMeaghan — Fri, 22 Jun 2012 03:21:16 GMT

Hello Knitters!

Im between projects and am trying to fill my time as I wait for my next yarn order to arrive. I'm working on the Hella Hat (Loden size) by Lene Holme Samsoe (Essentially Feminine Knits purchased from Interweave). Everything runs smoothly from row 1 to row 7 where I end with the requisite 70 st. Row 8's directions stump me though. It goes as follows:

Row 7: *K9, p1; rep from * to end. (70 sts)

Row 8: *M1, k3, s2kp, k3, M1, p1; rep from * to end.

By my count row 8 is a multiple of 13 sts which doesn't divide evenly into 70 which is why I end up short stitches in the round. Has anyone had any luck with this? I'd appreciate any help since I can't seem to find anything about it online.

Thanks!

Meg

Good Circular Knitting Book

AndreaW — Sun, 30 May 2010 06:23:31 GMT

Hi All...

Just thought I'de share re: a book I have @ home fr the library right now, on circular knitting.

"very easy circular knits" by Betty Barnden (2007) ISBN 978-1-57120-427-1

It has great pics/ clear explanations/ knit samples/ + quite a few patts of many types.

socks/ a hat/ gloves/ 2 pillows inc 1 that's a nice rnd cabled bolster/ a yoke sweater in szs + variations for most of the family/ 2 bags/ mittens. Toys inc: a really cute hand puppet....2 versions/ a mouse/ a snake.

A beginner would find something to make + a more experienced knitter would too.

Nice stitch library in the back w/ good pics also. 128 pages

Take Care ...... Andrea

Nordic Knitting book - when will Interweave reprint?

marj_f — Sat, 11 Feb 2012 00:19:17 GMT

Hi,

I am hoping that Interweave will reprint the book, "Nordic Knitting" by Susanne Pagoldh. I have been trying to source a copy for years! Personally, I would like this classic in a hardback (as opposed to paperback) binding.

Please, please will you reprint?!

If you also would like Interweave to reprint this classic, please register your vote of support!

Thank you.

Toe Up Socks Book and/or ML Book

Lorene — Sun, 25 May 2008 11:49:56 GMT

Isn't it about time publishers recognized there are a lot of folks who don't (some can't due to physical problems) knit socks on dpns and many don't knit from the top down?

As for the other portion of my subject line: yes, I know how to convert patterns written for dpns to ML BUT I also teach classes and it is very difficult to find appropriate patterns for students without sitting down and re-writting them which, by the way, may or may not be a violation of copyright so I try writing my own basic paterns. And I really would rather be knitting samples for classes instead of having to write patterns or pattern interpretations for them.

One of the reasons I have not invested in Getting Started Knitting Socks is that I happen to be one of those persons sufficiently afflicted with arthritis that I can't knit with small dpns and all the publicity on this book indicates it is "old fashioned" and uses only dpns. ETA: This question has been answered -- the patterns are for dpns.

2-at-a-time Socks by Melissa Morgan-Oakes is a great example of what I'm talking about for more advanced sock knitters but only features top down patterns. I may use it for beginning students and tell them to ignore the instructions for "sock B" until they are comfortable with sock anatomy and want to knit 2 socks at once.

Am I alone here or have others experienced this frustration?

Hi, I bought this book to help me understand how to knit sweaters but all it has done is confuse me. Maybe I don't understand what the author is trying to tell me but does anyone know if they are going to put out a video on this book?

Budapest Roof Tile Socks Pattern

JaneyW839 — Sat, 20 Nov 2010 19:20:49 GMT

I fell in love with the Budapest Roof Tile Socks in Think Outside the Socks. BUT, there is no pattern in the book, and repeated attempts have failed to produce responses from the designer, or publisher. That's a nice book, but I am very disappointed in the omission of that pattern! Can anyone help?

Thanks.

'Victorian lace today' book - who can help with dilema?

meikews — Wed, 18 Mar 2009 20:31:29 GMT

Hi,

I bought a few lace pattern books after I got hooked on wanting to knit such integrate work.

When I searched threw the books to pick my first pattern I noticed that in the book 'Victorian lace today' the weight of yarn is indicated but I can't seem to find anywhere the quantity required to knit each piece.

Can anyone help please? Thanks!

anyone tell me about a book of instructions for left-handed knitting? Thank

All New Homespun Handknit Book

Gwen@29 — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 18:18:33 GMT

I purchased the book recently, mostly because I'm a spinner and would like to use some of the yarn I've made.I was working on the Chutes and Ladders Hat and wondering if anyone has tried to knit it. I had problems with the pattern and thought maybe I'm missing something as I read it. Has anyone tried that pattern and if not, do you know who can help me?

Knitting Socks with Handpainted Yarn

khoff — Wed, 25 Feb 2009 16:20:18 GMT

I just bought this book, and it's very beautiful and has lots of information about hand-dyed yarn and lovely sock patterns. However, as someone who simply cannot work with fingering weight yarn on size 0 and 1 needles, I am disappointed that none of the patterns are written for, or have alternate insturctions for, slightly heavier yarn. Yes, most "sock yarn" is fingering weight -- but there are lots of lovely handpainted yarns out there in sport, dk and even worsted weights, and I'm probably not the only person who likes to knit socks with them. It might take more math skill than I have to turn patterns written for a 60 stitch sock or a 72 stitch sock into a 40 or 44 stitch sock.

Uh, Crochet Books? Question

Lorene — Tue, 27 May 2008 17:11:35 GMT

Sorry if this is in wrong place but I didn't see a section for Crochet Books.

The old crochet Harmony Guides were recommended to me some months ago. I think I've been "asleep at the wheel" but just noticed 2 (new?) crochet Harmony Guides at Interweave Press. Since the editor is listed as being British, I would like to know if the crochet stitch names in these books are the American version or the British version. I am too new at crochet to be comfortable translating from British to American.

Thanks!
