The winner is Lillian!
It’s too late for these to help you with this year’s holiday knitting, but I have been wanting to do this giveaway for a while and it seems appropriate for this time of year.
The winner this week will get a copy of 60 Quick Knits and 60 More Quick Knits from Sixth & Spring Books. The books both have 20 patterns each for hats, scarves and mittens. The first book uses Cascade 220 and the second Cascade 220 Sport.
There books have a great variety of projects, some solid color things as well as fun colorwork, and lots of techniques worked in. Because most of the projects are small, they work up pretty fast for gifts, or when you just want a new knit accessory for yourself.
If you’d like a chance to win these, leave a comment on this post before the end of the day Sunday, December 20. I’d love to know which is your favorite to knit: hats, scarves or mittens? I’m usually a scarf girl but I’ve been getting into mittens (and gloves) lately.
Thanks for visiting, commenting and sharing and good luck!
I’ve always preferred mittens. I enjoy complex pattern work in the round. I’ve only knit hats a handful of times and scarfs get boring for me after awhile.
Mittens!!! They are like nail polish so many colours and choices ???? happy Christmas ????????????
Hat’s are what I make most of tho I’m branching out to scarves and mitts as well
Because I do not know really how to use Dpns I will say that a scarf is what I prefer.
I knit hat scarves and mitts, and do not really have a preference. Thank you for the chance to win
I have attempted knitting in the past, but got more into crocheting…but I would love to give knitting a try again 🙂
Learning on scarves, would love to try mittens. Thanks for the giveaway.
I like the variety in scarves
I love making hats in the round. Fast and easy.
If it ever gets cold here again i sure need patterns. Delaware is setting new temp records every day.
I love making hats!
I love hats! In fact I knit five for Christmas gifts this year!
My son is a knitter and I’d love to get these for him
Scarves have always been my favorite to knit.
I love making hats…so quick yet so impressive! These books will be a great resource for some new patterns for charity knitting.
Mittens. Can’t even count how many pairs I’ve made.
I think scarfs are the best gift for anyone. they are always a great fashion accessory. I like to knit these for gifts because you do not have to worry about the correct fit, different lengths are great and its a great way to use up some of your stash.
Right now scarves and cowls are my favorite to knit, but I’ve found a charity in the area that wants mittens and hats – so I’m going for mittens & hats this coming year!
Scarves for me. I need brainless knitting!
I love to crochet but decided to take a big leap into knitting by starting a Persian dreams octagon afghan in 14 colors.
Mostly hats,which- I pass out to the homeless – I tried giving them mitts, but they didn’t go over well. .
I love any knitting and would be happy to win anything at all. I never keep what I make, but pay it forward.
I’ve never made mittens or gloves but I’ve enjoyed the hats and scarves I’ve made.
I like to knit hats, fingerless mitts, and cowls.
I love hats
I like to knit hats. I haven’t made very many mittens. I think they are more challenging.
I try to knit a little of everything. I love finding and trying new pattens . It makes my day to try something that I feel is to difficult for me and later see it finished in my hands.
My favorite is a scarf.
My library is tired of my checking out Quick Knits Hats…now that there is More Quick Knits I would like my own copy…
I am a scarf knitter but like to make hats as well.
is this contest open to Canada? because I love making dpn mittens!
I’m such a slow knitter that hats are about my speed.
I really like knitting the fingerless gloves a lot using the magic loop circular knitting method. Thanks for the opportunity to enter!
Love to do them all. Gloves and mittens are really fun. But when I’m feeling just a little low, or some big project just won’t come together, knitting or crocheting a hat is just so satisfying. And when a friend goes ‘I love your hat’ its nice to go here ‘its yours, I’ll make another.’
I am not an experienced knitter so scarves are easiest for me to make.
Who doesn’t want quick knits this time of year? 🙂
I prefer knitting cowls and Fingerless mitts. Fun giveaway.
Hats! Just perfect to top off all of my favorite people:)

Hats on 4 needles go super fast when you knit for a wrestling team;
My favorite to knit or crochet is scarves, great for trying out new stitch patterns! Thanks 😀

I like to make scarfs but want to learn how to make socks and mittens.
I am a cowl knitter this christmas.
Would love to have these.
Infinity scarves/cowls, and mittens/fingerless gloves
I’d have to say mittens ,followed by cowl type scarves this year. I do knit hats ,but only for other people as I hate hat hair on myself????
Definitely a scarf knitter.
I like matching scarf and hat sets.
I prefer to knit scarfs.
I am a hat gal, especially those with attitude and embellishments.
Truly a feminine accessory that adds style to any outfit. .
Definitely hats. I love making them and wearing them
