Knittingnotecards is our winner!
I’m a sucker for a good stitch dictionary, and I have more than my share, which is one of the reasons I’m giving this one away this week.
750 Knitting Stitches
is almost a coffee table book of a knitting stitch guide, being hardcover with lots of colorful pictures.
But it isn’t just pretty; it also has lots of good patterns for basic knit and purl, cables, lace, colorwork and borders. It’s sure to inspire you to try some new stitch patterns, whether you strike out on your own to knit a scarf, add a colorwork design to the edge of a sweater or go all out and make a completely unique project.
If you’d like a chance to win a copy of this book, leave a comment on this post before the end of the day Sunday, September 6. U.S. residents only on this one, please, because it’s really heavy!
I’d love to know what genre of knitting stitches is your favorite: basic knit and purl, lace, cables, colorwork or something else? I think basic knit and purl offers some of my favorites because I love easy texture, but I’ve been getting into lace a little bit lately, too.
Thanks for visiting, commenting and sharing, and good luck!
I just love cable and I am getting more into lace. Colorwork intimidates me to no end, but I will have to give it a go sometime.
I like to do lace stitches. I like to mix my stitches up a bit for visual and mental stimulation.
I’ve been enjoying slip stitches and stitches that you pass over (psso). If I win your book, I’ll put it too good use when I knit socks! Thank you for the opportunity to win!!
I love stitch pattern books!
I think mine is mitered squares They are quick and versatile.
Ooh, I would love this book! I love knitting lace, that’s definitely my favorite. I also enjoy cables.
I really love cables! <3
Really gotten i to both socks and fingerless mittens for gifts really need some different stitches to make them pop . Since breaking up with husband had to leave most of my books behind and just enough extra money for yarn. Help build my book collection again.
I love cables. Would like to venture out into color work…
Thanks for the giveaway.
I would love to have this dictionary. I love to improv knit scarves and hats and would love to be able to look up different stitches to use.
I also LOVE colorwork of various kinds.
I’m still new to knitting but love it already.
There would be nothing better than to share another knitting book to our little library.
I’m excited about learning some new tricks to an old trade! Thanks for the chance at winning this incredible book!!
I am a new knitter so some of those techniques I have not done yet. I enjoy regual knit and purl work. I would love this book since I’m new to knitting and would love to learn new stitches.
Thank you for a chance to win!!!
I love to knit cables and lace.
Wow, 750 stitches? I am lucky if I can accomplish 10 but I love learning new ones. Cables are my fav. They are so intricate and complicated looking and remind me of the many my grandmother used to make for us kids. Now that I am old, I am glad they live on….. Thank you for the giveaway. So kind.
I love traditional knitting. Learned when I was 7 and through all the years hence, knitting, just knitting fills my heart with peace.
I really need this. Thanks for the giveaway.
Cables are my favorite but lace runs a close second. This looks like an amazing book for both. Thanks so much for the giveaway!
I love cable and lace but really need lots of practice!
Cables!! Being a relatively new knitter I would put this book to good use! Thanks for the great giveaway!!
I’ve become slightly obsessed with stitch dictionaries of late! As for my favorite stitches? It depends on the day. I like to switch up my knitting with every project so lace then cables then garter… You get the idea. Thanks for the chance to win this awesome sounding book!
I love cables! I do love the look of colorwork, but haven’t done much of it. All those ends to weave in are too much for me!
I’ve been experimenting with yarn overs and slipped stitches. For just good zen fun give me a garter stitch.
I would love a stitch book! As a new designer, I’m sure it would be full of inspiration!
I’m looking for new patterns- I’ve gone through different knit and purl combinations, cable, now dropped stitch is intriguing, maybe slip stitch…variety is wonderful! Thanks!
This book looks AMAZING and I would be so happy to add it to my collection!
Thanks for all you do on your Blog.
Basic knitting is my favorite and cable is not.
Lace is really beginning to be a favorite for me.
Lace super intimidates me. Would look to have a good reference book like this!
Since I mostly knit to relax, basic knits and purls are my faves, although I do like to mix them up with cables and/or lace once in a while.
looks like a great book!
I enjoy the basics & LOVE cables!! I’m not at the stage to add cables into a pattern but plan to give that a try.
I haven’t done much w/ lace but plan to do more of that, too
I would truly love to have this book! I make shawls for the prayer shawl ministry at church, and am always on the lookout for different patterns and stitches to try. This book would be so helpful and would help avoid the tedium of doing the same basic patterns over and over.
I would love to win this book. I have fallen into a creative dry spell with my knitting and there is nothing quite like paging through a stitch book for inspiration.
I would love to learn new stitches!
I’m just learning to knit so the basics are all I can handle right now, but I’m looking forward to being able to branch out as my skills improve.
I love to try new stitch combinations. I make them into dishcloths so I can really see how they look, and I have a product as a result!
Cables & lace are delicate & stimulating, and the classic knit & purl with great yarn is always a pleasure!
Just re-learning to knit after years. All stitches are my favorite.
I am currently fascinated with some garter stitch designs.
Most of my knitting these days is for charity. Lap blankets for hospice, baby layettes for Birth Choice, hats for the homeless vets. It would be nice to incorporate a few lacy stitches on some of these items to jazz them up and I do prefer lacey knitting to plain. Lot less boring IMO.
I’m at the K, P stage but trying to get better and learn more.
It’s great you are giving a wonderful resource to someone. It will surly enhance any one’s skill level and knowledge.
my favorite is combining cables and lace – just love the look and the process of making it
I would love to win this so I could learn more about knitting!
Basic stitches are my favorite! They are the foundation of all other stitches. I do want to learn cables though!
Oh!! I just love to knit. It is my ultimate getaway from a busy, Momma Cab, Homework, etc… I would love this as it would help me with some of the stitches that I don’t know by heart. I have been knitting since I could remember.
My Mom introduced me to knittin at an early age, I didn’t knit for years and was surprised that I could just pick it back up about 5 years ago. This would really be awesome if I could win this giveaway!! Thank you!!
would really find this useful
I love using lace and cables in my knitting. Anything, really, other than boring knit and purl.
Lace is my go to knitting project. I love doing lace shawls and learning new stitches. (I didn’t even know there were 750 stitches to learn! I have a long way to go.)
I would really love the chance to win this book as I lost mine ( stitch bible) in a fire, it was really well loved and used for over 25 years!
