Giveaway: Debbie Macomber Knitting Booklets

March 9, 2015 by Sarah White

debbie macomber knitting booksI have this random collection of Debbie Macomber knitting booklets from Leisure Arts to give away today. They do a pattern book to go with each of her knitting fiction books, and I somehow have three of them:

Hannah’s List, which has 13 patterns that are great for gifts, including scarves, sweaters, socks, baby things and an adorable dog sweater

Summer on Blossom Street, which has 7 patterns for knitting and 3 for crochet; some of the knitting ones include a cable sampler scarf, a baby blanket, a kid’s sweater and a man’s vest

A Turn in the Road, with 18 patterns you can knit while you travel, including scarves, socks, slippers, a shawl and some baby things.

One winner will get all three booklets.

For a chance to win, leave a comment on this post before the end of the day Sunday, March 15. I’d love to know if you read Debbie Macomber or any other knitting fiction and who your favorite authors in that genre are. I’ve read a few of her books, but not all of them.

Thanks for visiting, commenting and sharing, and good luck!

    I do read Deborah Macomber’s books, not just the knitting ones, because they have a gentle realness about them. I enjoy other crafts, but don’t really have favorite authors who include the. Right now I’m reading an Amish quilt book by Vanetta Chapman that I’m enjoying. It’s title is “Falling to Pieces.”

Fun Tank Top Knitting Patterns

It seems like every summer there’s a new crop of tank top knitting patterns, and what I noticed about a lot of the new releases this year is that they have fun little details that make them a little more interesting both to knit and to wear. 

Like the Sailoress Top from Joji Locatelli, which has a pretty cable worked up the center from and back, with shorter sections of cable work on the shoulders. It uses DK weight yarn and comes in 10 sizes up to a bust circumference of 72 inches/ 158 cm. You can find the pattern on Ravelry. 

Combine lace and cables in an allover pattern on the Mountain Laurel Top from Andrea Gaughan. This sport weight pattern is worked from the bottom up in the count and has 10 sizes. It’s available on Ravelry.

The Vienna Textured Tank Top by Sarah Hatton has wide ribs broken up by eyelets. There’s very little shaping so it’s a pretty easy knit worked in fingering weight yarn. There are nine sizes available and it’s a free download on Ravelry.

Make a tank with a boho vibe perfect for festival season with Mary Beth Temple’s Tropical Sunset Tank Top. Worked in worsted weight cotton yarn, it’s knit from the bottom up in pieces to make it more stable. The coloring changing yarn is perfect for this one, or you can make it solid or work in your own stripes. You can get the XS size free on her blog, and other sizes are available on Ravelry.

Looking for a cropped lacy V-neck top to knit for summer? Jessie Maed Designs has the Sundae Swirl Tank, worked in DK weight yarn in the round with a fun combination of lace and cables. The ribbing under the arms helps give it a great fit. There are six sizes up to a chest measurement of 62 inches/157.5 cm. You can find this one on Ravelry.

How about a tank top with buttons? The Ridge Tank Button Down from Bluebird Pine Shop could double as a vest in cooler weather. This one is made with light fingering weight yarn and comes in 10 sizes. Grab a copy on Ravelry.

An otherwise simple top can be made a little more interesting with the addition of a fun edging, like on Sarah Opie’s Seashell Tank. Worked in fingering weight yarn, it has a whopping 24 sizes and lots of customization options for making it fit the way you want. The edging is crocheted. Learn more on Ravelry.
