mason-dixon knitting
Hardly ever do I pick up a knitting book or check one out from the library and want to make more than 90% of the projects. Or want to write an entire post about it. I finally got to the top of the hold list for Mason-Dixon Knitting by Kay Gardiner and Ann Meador Shayne. I’m ready to break out my larger needles, buy out the local store of Peaches & Cream, order some linen and get to knitting dishcloths, handtowels, a bath mat, a log cabin blanket and even a nightgown.
I’ve never been a regular reader of Kay and Ann’s blog Mason-Dixon Knitting and now I’m wondering, WHY? What has kept me from reading their blog. Time, laziness most likely. They’ve converted me and I plan on finding out what I’ve been missing but maybe in my missing, I was more impressed and more smitten with their book. I have plenty of knitting books but this one is one I plan on buying. It’s done something to me that other knitting for the home books haven’t done, inspired me. Don’t be surprised if you suddenly see me knitting more dishcloths or a bath mat here. It could be perfect light knitting for the summer. And the log cabin baby blanket is an absolute must for my new nephew who is due in August.
