Pros: A book with great collection of patterns from easy and simple to advanced and classy.
Cons: I haven't tried any project however have read the book and no issues
Overall: Good Book.

I have seen Judith Durant's book and would love to knit my brother n law sock, shawl and fingerless gloves because he was recently diagnosis with Soft Tissue Scaroma and will be undergoing heavy doses of chemo and radiation and will need to keep warm for the rest of the winter months. My direct e-mail address is diane.mccurdy@montgomerycollege.edu
I would like to make some fingerless gloves so I can have warm hands while reading on my iPad.

I love working with sock yarn but not so much knitting socks - they are fun to knit but I hate how quickly they wear out so I don't wear them. I love the idea of something other than socks to knit with sock yarn. I love to knit shawlettes with sock yarn and I think there are some hat patterns in this book that I would like to try (tho I haven't seen it, just pics of the hats on blogs). trhfox at gmail dot com

I haven't picked up knitting needles since I was about 11, and would love to make time for projects like these! Fingerless gloves would have been a blessing this week. It was so cold here I'd have been wearing them at the keyboard! Those would be #1 on my to-do list, definitely. Thanks for the chance to win! :)

christink@centurytel.net
I don't have the book and don't know what the projects are; but, I think that it would be a pair of the socks.
Liked ssk-craftshop on facebook!

I thought I was already a follower of your blog but I wasn't . . . am now!
I would love to have that purse on the cover. It's so pretty!
I have to pick just one? I'm aching for a tote, so I'd probably start there.

I love this book but! I'd start with the fngerless gloves and then work on the little sweater on the cover.
Thanks for the opportunity.

I knit and crochet. I have taken out the "101-Designer One-Skein Wonders" and "101 One-Skein Wonders" from the library and made several gifts from them because they are packed full of quick rewarding projects that make great gifts for men, women, kids and babies! The last one I made was the Ice Scraper Mitt for my brother. I did not know Judith Durant had another one in the series with sock yarn patterns, so I would be thrilled if I won it! There are always so many things I want to make with such a large collection of patterns in one place, but I think I would settle on the baby-size kimono because a good friend at work is expecting her second child and I always knit or crochet something for my co-workers who have a new baby...it's a tradition for me! Thanks for the chance to win this great book!

I would likely do the fingerless gloves (my youngest daughter has a thing for them) or one of the baby items (I knit for charity and I have some yarn that I'm just looking for a good project for). Thanks for the giveaway!
