We’ve been waiting for the arrival of the latest Yarn Girls book all summer. Both Becka and I count their first book among our favorite knitting books. Why? Sure, the patterns aren’t terribly complicated. But, therein lies the beauty. The designs are all straightforward, appealing to the newbie and the seasoned sweater knitters alike, and most importantly, they talk you through everything. I learned to seam properly because of the instructions in their first book.
And now there is a new one with the same fun yet clear instructions, and fabulous patterns. After a quick skim I have already picked out a number of patterns I want to knit.
I am also thrilled to tell you that we FINALLY have the patterns available for the miniature sweaters hanging in our front window. So many people have been asking for the patterns, I knew we had to get them in - especially as people start their holiday knitting.

These make great gifts as well as decorations.
Marcia was back from vacation which meant I got to get a picture of her Eris sweater. I’m pretty sure she is the furthest along of all our Eris knitters (that collar is quite the challenge!). Isn’t it beautiful?
