THE PRIZE

josey knits giveaway

This week’s giveaway is for 2 great products – Knitting for Dummies and a Flower Power Knitted Headband pattern from Etsy seller Josey Knits.

MY REVIEW

Josey Knits

I learned how to knit in January of this year, so I’m  very new to knitting, but I love it and have been having so much fun learning new skills. I haven’t yet finished my knitted Flower Power headband yet so I don’t have any pictures, but I’ve learned how to increase which was scary and intimidating at first but not hard at all.

Josey is the artist behind some beautiful knitted headbands and the Flower Power headband is for beginners. When I first got the pattern and saw all the increasing and decreasing I thought that was beyond my beginner skills, but it’s totally not. So this pattern is perfect for experienced and new knitters alike.

Her headbands are so cute and I especially love the flowers on the Flower Power headband. And knits are so much softer and stretchier and comfortable to wear.

Thanks Josey!

Knitting for Dummies

Like I said, I learned how to knit in January and after my first lesson I went to the library and checked out Knitting for Dummies. I read through almost the whole thing and went back to my teacher the next week with enough knowledge to ask questions. That’s what this book has done for me – given me a foundation and basic knowledge so I can know what questions to ask my teacher.

This book has been invaluable in helping me decipher patterns, understand the importance of gauge, learn about the different types and materials of needles and why you would use what, know how to fix common mistakes, switch colors, and so much more.

It’s a great reference book for any knitter!
