Last week I shared with you this fun book, Garter Stitch Revival, that’s all about using this simple stitch pattern in different ways, from accenting a piece worked largely in another stitch pattern to using it all over a garment.
This week I’m giving away my copy.
If you’d like a chance to win it, leave a comment on this post before the end of the day Sunday, March 12.

I have only used garters stitch on a scarf.
I find garter stitch so relaxing after working on lace patterns.
Garter stich is easy, it was the first stich my grandma taught me. I use it a lot 🙂
Thank you for the giveaway.
I really enjoy doing garter stitch. I made a large afghan, in a solid color and it turned out very nice and “crushable”. I’m thinking of trying some socks soon and perhaps a sweater. Although it doesn’t seem like it would be very interesting, it’s a great project to do while watching TV and I like the way it looks.
Garter stitch gives a very nice edge to patterns.
Would love to win this book. My favorite cardigans are in garter stitch.
love the giveaway – thanks for the chance!! I also quit doing only garter stitch so this looks like a great opportunity to work it back in
Love the rustic look of garter, doing a full bias shawl right now in all garter and it’s the perfect stitch for the yarn I’m working with. Would love more ideas on using garter!
Last year I made a garter stitch afghan. My friends and family thought I was nuts, but it was a great just-before-bedtime, non-stimulating project.
I’m working on a garter stitch and slip stitch blanket right now. I think it’s an underrated stitch and I love to see it used so creatively.
garter stitch is one of the few stitches i know..I would love to know how to be more creative than a scarf.
Garter stitch is the first stitch I learned. I have made a number of items with it. It is actually the stitch I used on my father’s favorite scarves.
Meet friends every Sunday to stitch and talk. Garter stitch is so much easier to do and still keep up with the conversation! 🙂
Garter stitch is my favourite: so quick and so easy. It was the first stitch I was taught and I was so annoyed at getting the simple stitch wrong all the time. I should have used plain wool though, instead of mohair! You live and learn!
For years I only used garter stitch because it was the only one I knew. Once I learned purl, garter didn’t seem to satisfy me. But lately, as new patterns have arrived, I’ve begun to see it in a new light
I like knitting garter stitch. I use it all the time for borders on dishcloths and scarves. Garter stitch projects are great for public knitting or taking it to the knit group.
Would love to win this book. Thanks for giving me the chance.
I garter have this book!!!
I have used garter stitch in a lot of projects. It is good for an easy project to knit while watching tv.
Using garter stitch, I have made a ruana, lots of baby blankets, dishcloths, baby sweaters, a classic log cabin knit afghan, etc. I am now working on a design of my own — a “modernized” variant of a log cabin afghan. I’d love to have this book for more ideas. I (obviously) love garter stitch!
I would love the opportunity to have this book. My knee was fractured 2weeks ago, and after surgery I can’t put any weight on that leg for six weeks, so I’ve got plenty of time for knitting!
I enjoy introducing garter stitch into garments for a pattern variation. Thank you for the giveaway chance.
My daughter got me to look at garter stitch again, as she really likes it. I have a WIP jacket sweater that’s all done in garter, and it is a lot of fun! I would love a chance to win this set of garter stitch patterns, thanks for offering it!
I like to use garter stitch in border. I’m currently working on a throw done in garter stitch diamonds to use up scrapes of sock yarn.
I like garter stitch as a stretchy border. Thanks for another great giveaway!
This looks like a great book for a beginner!
I love garter stitches that break up pattern repeats in shawls. Would love this book.
Simple designs are timeless.
Wow, cool! Garter stitch was the first thing I learnt to knit (as most people, probably ;), and I was already learning with the idea that it is “boring”, being so simple. In Spanish it is even called the “dumb stitch”! 😀
However, there are so many beautiful things you can do with it! The book looks very interesting 😉
Garter stitch is the way a lot of us learned the knit stitch – just row after row of knit stitch – and then move on to stockinette to learn to purl. I learned the purl stitch using garter, because if you purl every row, you still get garter stitch. It seemed amazing at the time that the very different stitch would give the same result. Thanks for the giveaway.
Garter stitch is my favorite. Love the cover.
I am currently working on the Urban Ranch Shawl which is in garter stitch. Love how the garter stitch feels soft and squishy! Thank you for the opportunity to win a book with more yummy patterns.
Thanks for the giveaway! I like garter stitch,and still enjoy knitting basic garter stitch scarves.
I enjoy knitting garter stitch projects at my Knit n Natter group as I don’t have to concentrate so much!
I use a garter on each side of my scarves to help prevent rolling. It really, really helps a lot!!!
I’d. Love to start my book collection over. Through a series of unfortunate events I lost all my stash, needles and books. I started over in November.
