The Handmade Marketplace

This book has been around a little while, and I'd been meaning to get it since I first heard about it, and finally had the chance to in the middle of March. With packing and moving, I've only had the chance to read a couple chapters, but I've already learned quite a bit. It's well written, easy to understand, and most importantly, it's fun! I am able to hold onto the information given much better when I actually enjoy what I am reading.
I'm really looking forward to reading more! Tonight before I go to bed, I will read a couple more chapters.

Mason-Dixon Knitting

I got the book on Thursday, just as I was leaving to go to Rick's house. I read most of it, and I must say, I love this book. The pictures are wonderful, the writing is fantastic (I wouldn't expect any less from these two lovely ladies) and the patterns are amazing.
Like I said before, I'm not much for knitting from patterns, but I might just break that for some of these patterns.

Also, the video in the last post is of me. I know I've posted pictures and such before, but just for any new readers who don;t know who I am.

Mason-Dixon Knitting Outside the Lines, and SwagBucks

Okay, I may be a little late on this one.

I just purchased Mason-Dixon Knitting Outside The Lines from Amazon the other day. I have been planning on ordering it since it was released, but I haven't had the extra money, or a credit card.
I have gotten both of these in the past week and ordered the book right away.
I am a member of SwagBucks**, and recently redeemed nearly all of my points for Amazon.com gift cards. I had something like $20 (US) in credits in my account, and got my credit card so I could finally place my order.
Since I am in Canada, it will probably take a bit longer for me to receive it. I am so excited, though. I rarely knit from patterns, but I love collecting knitting-related books.
Once I get it, I will certainly post a review of some sort!
