"What an awesome collection of kitchen and dining room knitting patterns. I saw a couple that I liked when I scrolled through and will check them out later, but I am most interested in the patterns for the cozy section and especially the wine bottle cozy that looked like a little sweater."

"I keep my dpns in a couple of ice cube trays -- the kind that makes long skinny icecubes for water bottles. I made a wall hanging for all my circulars, each size has its own slot. And a pocket in the back."

"I tried this pattern three times and could not get the shell effect. I started with 70 stitches but then ended up with 50 after I finished the four rows. What am I doing wrong?"

"I love finding patterns that are presented in a collection or group that has a lot of variety in it. I love how they are usually categorized in easy to find types from easy to more detailed and from quick to more labor intensive. This is one that I will be saving to reference back to in the future. Thanks."

"A great collection of knitting projects with a variety of items and a variety of time needed to complete the project included. From easy and quick to make to more detailed projects, I see several that I am interested in making already. I cant wait to begin and to share with my friends."

Knowing what types of patterns to knit for children can be challenging.  Trying to find stylish summer patterns for kids adds even more to the struggle.  With this beautiful collection of 32 light weight, summer patterns, author Kristi Porter makes it look all-so-easy.  Inside this charming book you will find stunning photography mixed with various designs for children sizes 2-12. 

 

From cute hats, to knit shorts and lacey tanks and sweaters, this book has a great selection of patterns for both boys and girls alike.  The adorable Carry-All Caddie Bag on pg. 25 is so gorgeous and handy, I might just have to make one for myself.  Constructed with a simple, all-over pattern and colorful i-cord handles, this bag would make a great summer accessory for both children and adults. 

 

Besides the lovely patterns included in this book, you will also find a useful chart with defined knitting abbreviations in addition to short, illustrated tutorials for selective special knitting techniques that are included in some of the patterns.  So if you are searching for an extensive group of patterns to make for children this summer, or if you live in a place that's warm year-round, More Knitting in the Sun: 32 Patterns to Knit for Kids, would be a great book to add to your library.
