Thank you for this interview and the peeks into the book. I haven’t seen it in person yet. It looks fantastic.

the book is lovely. i did purchase it. however, the XL only goes to 40 inches. so it can be limiting for fuller figured gals.

but it is beautiful and it certainly gives great ideas for mixing yarns. i wouldn’t make a whole sweater in kureyon but i’d certainly put it in the yoke.

I definitely like the idea of using old sock yarn to do arm warmers. I have so many bits and bobs that could make really fun colour combos.

I was trying to add my pics of the 2 pair of baby socks I did to Flickr, but I can’t figure it out. I didn’t see anything that said to add them…they can be seen at http://kittenyarnsandcrafts.blogspot.com, just scroll down to the second post from the top to see them. One is a little white pair, and the other is a ducky feet pair to go with a ducky hat (both made for my cousin who is expecting her first baby in December).

You did a great job with this interview as well. It sounds like a definite must-buy and those sweater patterns are beautiful. I like the Lorelei Tank best. Too bad the mommy tummy wouldn’t look all that great with it.

Another great interview, Lolly! I have GOT to get that book. Everytime I go to the bookstore I have to take a look at it. I love so many of the patterns. I’m also really prefer knitting in the round whenever I can so it sounds like it’s right up my alley

Happy Monday!

What Karin said. At minimum you need to subtract at least 4 stitches from the total stitchcount to account for selvage.
