Product Description:
Dear Fellow Knitter,

Welcome! Come on in. Have a seat—we’ve been waiting for you.

Ever since our first book, Mason-Dixon Knitting: The Curious Knitters’ Guide, we’ve been exploring techniques and ideas that we once thought were the sort of thing that only brilliant knitters could do.

Our conclusion: We are all brilliant knitters!

None of this is rocket science! If you can knit a garter stitch scarf, you’ve figured out the hard part. Now it’s time for the fun to start. You hold in your hands the result of our odyssey. It’s a new collection of 30 delicious projects that we hope will take you on your own knitting adventures.

Decorating Yourself: A collection of beautiful things to make for your most demanding (and forgiving) client.

The Fairest Isle of All: A simple, quick introduction to a sort of knitting you may not have considered, with surprising, modern projects.

Covering the Small Human: Pint-sized knits, including baby hats, dreamy dresses, and a cool pullover for the ultimate challenge: the Older Child.

Occasional Knitting: Projects for the special occasions in life—holidays, housewarmings, picnics.

The Sophisticated Kitchen: New uses for one of our favorite yarns: kitchen cotton.

We have filled this book with luscious photographs, stories, tips, rules, and hints. You’ll read how we arrived at these projects and the discoveries we have made along the way, and you will discover shocking things about us.

At all times, we have kept in mind Mason-Dixon Knitting Rule Number 1 : Knitting is spoze to be fun. Fasten your seatbelt—it’s going to be a fabulous ride!

Love,
Kay and Ann

- Beautiful Book
The photographs, the patterns, the ideas, the humor - - all a "perfect 10." As for me, I must be a "lazy 8" knitter. There were so many patterns that will make many wonderful projects: sweaters, shrugs & rugs, etc. But most were a little complicated for me, as I prefer mostly mindless knitting. Kay & Ann are just too smart; yes,that's it. Many patterns were challenging and required a bit of paying attention - but you'd be greatly rewarded for your efforts. Some itmes are whimsical & fussy (in ... Read More

- knitting comes around
I love this book. I've been knitting since I was five years old (about 58 years) and I haven't bought a knitting book or pattern in YEARS. This book was sitting next to a book I was browsing and I bought it on a whim since my sister-in-law wants to learn to knit. I thought I'd get it for her, but I'm keeping this. Fun writing and fun projects. Now I need to buy the first book these ladies wrote.

- Love the editorials; unlikely to knit the projects
Four not three because the editorial content is fab. Four not five because I don't need to own it and it won't change my life.

Important-to-me idea: Knit your favorite sweater, regardless of recommended yarn, in mohair. Might actually try it. Don't need a new book for that pattern.

Great nod to Elizabeth Z. Nice overview and encouragement to try Fair Isle, if you've never though you had the nerve. Like the shawl. May knit a shopping bag but mine would have to be ... Read More

- Fun and friendly knitting
I really like this book - it proves there can be a lighter side to serious knitting. There is much more to this book than found at first glance. Every time I pick it up I learn something! I immediately made up 4 of the Metered Hanging Towels as a wedding gift. Then I had to make one for ME! There is a wonderful coat in my knitting que on page 23! Encorporating a few tricks, this is a garmet that LOOKS & FITS like what its supposed to be. I'm ready for the enlightenment!! This is not just a ... Read More

- Mason-Dixon Knitting Outside the Lines
I like this book for its innovation and sense of fun. The authors share their great love of knitting with the reader in such a genuine way. In reading this book, I feel as if I belong to a special group of people--knitters! This connection knows no boundary of age, class, or level of experience. It just IS, and these autors "get it".
