GIVEAWAY! 100 Knits: Interweave's Ultimate Pattern Collection



For those of you who started knitting when I did, circa 2005, you'll definitely know a few patterns by name and by 💙 from that era, because everyone was talking about them.

The Koolhaas hat (and look where Jared Flood of Brooklyn Tweed is now!)




The Swallowtail Shawl (which I credit for starting the lace knitting craze for so many knitters)




The Central Park Hoodie (5304 projects on Rav and in 5966 queues -- for a sweater!)




The Lucy Hat (I must have screened my stash 53 times to make it but never pulled the trigger! Maybe it's time?)




What ties these patterns together? They're all from Interweave Knits or Knitscene, and they're 4 out of 100 of the MOST POPULAR patterns from these mags in the last 15 years, now published in 100 Knits: Interweave's Ultimate Pattern Collection.




Interweave Knits was kind enough to offer a copy for my readers as a GIVEAWAY! (now closed)




Interweave Knits was one of my first knitting magazine subscriptions, and I remember grabbing as many back issues as I could. As the years went on, though, and independent designers started publishing en masse on Ravelry, most of my magazine subscriptions cycled on and off.

That's what makes 100 Knits the ideal book for me -- and probably for many of you, as well. It's like I never had those gap years! I have access to all the patterns that probably would have been my favorites, anyway.

You guys know I'm a sweater gal more than an accessories gal, so I'm really pleased to see this is a 'tops'-heavy collection:




Here are some of my faves to whet your appetite!
