Here's how it works: you order 4 book for 4 bucks (or $14 after s&h but who's counting), you then agree to buy 2 more books within a year. That's it. I actually ordered my 4 books plus an addition one as it was 1/2 off. I ended up spending $30 on 5 books, not bad.
So do they have any good books you ask? Observe:
Vogue Knitting Stitchionary: Volume One, knit & purl
Mason*Dixon Knitting
by Kay Gardner & Ann Shayne
(by the way i recently learned that ann's sister is a parent at elah's school with a child in the same class - it's like we're practically related. ok, maybe not but at the time yada yada yada)
Knitting Over the Edge
by Nicky Epstein
Scarf Style
by Pam Allen
Crocheting School: A complete course
(i am convinced i will master the hook)
Filling my one more book commitment won't be hard either, I think I'll end up choosing one of the following:
Loop-d-Loop
Handknit Holidays
Inspired Cable Knits
The Yarn Girls' Guide to Beyond the Basics
Decisions, decisions...
Also I ordered another copy of the Happy Hooker (from amazon) to send to my SP.
Jeopardy Time:
Entering them into Delicious Library.
What is almost as fun as getting so many new books?
Um, I had no idea you had a blog of your own!! How did I miss this?
ReplyDeleteNice book choices. I joined a few years ago. Need to cash in my points, quit, and wait for them to get some more good books that I don;t have already.
I'm lovin' Mason Dixon. Somebody needs to have a baby so I can make a small log cabin.
The only thing more fun than getting a bunch of new books is packing. Oh, no, wait, that's more fun than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick.
ReplyDeleteJust barely.
