The Knitter's Life List Video Review and Giveaway!

Hi Knitters,
I posted a 5 minute video review of the lovely Gwen Steege's new book, The Knitter's Life List. I am giving away a copy of this beautiful book that is packed full of information and inspiration.

Please leave one comment on this post if you would like to win a copy. Also, please leave your email or ravelry id so I can get in touch with the winner to gather a mailing address. I will give your address to Storey Publishing to send out a copy to you directly. I love this book and Gwen even signed my copy so I will be keeping this one for myself.

Good luck if you enter! It's a terrific book and I guarantee that you will love it!
best, susie

  52. Hi Susan! I am new to the Knitting World, and I am IN LOVE! I have finally found what relaxes me and makes me feel good about myself. I have 3 children, and in my hectic life, knitting is my "me time." I have a whole new respect for handmade items, which I once used to take for granted. I take much appreciation in my work. I think this book giveaway you are doing is such a great thing. It looks awesome, and I am crossing my fingers...Thank you so much for encouraging me!

  70. I have to admit that at first, the idea of a "life list" didn't appeal to me. I mean, I already know that there's a lot I still have to learn about knitting, why would I need a huge list that made it all the more intimidating?
    But hearing you talk about it made me realize it was all the contrary, that this book is designed to help you learn and to make the knowledge more accessible. Oh yes, I'd love to win this!
