New Books


Lindsey Fowler’s knitwear collection Salt & Timber is inspired by the Pacific Northwestern coast. This visually stunning book features 15 cozy designs that are intuitive and easy to knit. The patterns – including socks, shawls, sweaters, hats, mitts, and even a blanket – offer thoughtful details, opportunities to make the most of your yarn stash and ways to customize the garments to fit your style.








We’ve made it easy! 

52 Weeks of Easy Knits includes 52 uncomplicated knitting patterns, ranging from beanies, mittens and scarves to sweaters, socks and cardigans. The designs are fun, cosy and modern, but above all, they are a pleasure to knit. 

In this clear and colourful book, there are many super-easy, quick-to-finish patterns that are perfect for beginners. The more challenging ones offer meditative projects for those with a bit more experience. All the patterns are created using basic knitting techniques, and each step of the process is explained thoroughly. The book also includes useful information about choosing the right materials and finishing your garment. 

52 Weeks of Easy Knits offers you knitting inspiration for years to come – the only difficult thing is deciding what to knit first!

See all the books from Laine.

I’m not sure why I picked today as the day to move things around but it was. Hedgehog Twist Sock is moving to a new home. I can’t get all the colours up - that will be Monday’s job to move things around.
I moved the top hooks down a few rows. They were way too high before and no one could reach the yarn. I will think about this over the weekend to come up with something to hang up there.
It’s time to head home. I’m going to hit Publish before I go and hopefully I will get some knitting accomplished tonight.
