I'm Writing a Book!

Just a quick note today, because I have really big news. I just signed a book contract with Interweave Press! My book is scheduled for release in the fall of 2014, and will be a collection of about 20 all new garments and accessory designs. I'm so excited!


My husband snapped a pic of me signing the contract. There's nothing like legal forms and champagne!

Unfortunately for my blog, I am unable to talk much about the new designs until the book is released. I'm going to try to make up for it though, with a new series of blog posts that I'm calling "5 Things". With each post, I'll talk about 5 things you should know about a variety of knitting topics and techniques. Also, to keep things lively, I am inviting some guest bloggers to contribute some very special posts (I'm looking at you, Mom!)

    Congrats! I've recently discovered your designs and think you are a wonderful knitwear designer so this couldn't happen to a better person! Good luck on the book. I will be sure to pre-order it!

    Big Congrats! I'm celebrating this news by purchasing my copy of your Delancey Cardigan pattern. It's been in my Ravelry cart for months, and now it's time to cast on! Hooray--thanks for the inspiration.
