knit and crochet now season 7 giveaway

Congratulations to Laurie!

A new season of Knit and Crochet Now! is on its way, and it’s super exciting to see how the show has changed with new host Deborah Norville. Known as the anchor of Inside Edition, she’s also an avid crocheter with her own yarn line.

As usual, a range of guests will demo projects and share tutorials with viewers. This season those guests include editor of Crochet! Magazine, Ellen Gormley; in-house designer for Annie’s Signature Collection and Annie’s knit and crochet magazines, Lena Skvagerson; authors Robyn Chachula and Kristin Nicholas; and crochet designer Rohn Strong.

The new series includes 13 episodes and began airing on public television stations through Create TV on April 5. The show airs at 6 a.m. and 12 p.m.

Produced by Annie’s, viewers will be able to enjoy over six hours of knit and crochet tips and techniques. In every episode, Deborah will introduce the viewers to new unique yarns, patterns and products. Knit and Crochet Now! designers will share their expertise in knit and crochet skills, techniques and knowledge in color. Viewers will not want to miss the popular segment “Stitch of the Week.”

  2. I wish that I was able to watch the show, but it doesn’t look like it’s carried in my area!! These DVDs would be just as nice. I’ve Crocheted for 40+ years, but there’s always a new technique coming out, that I’m anxious to try. Thank you for the wonderful contest!!

  5. I do not watch T.V.
    In the past I have watched sewing and a craft show on my PBS station. Its been a long time.
    I usually catch things online..

    Thanks for the giveaway. Great for rainy days!

  10. OOO, I want that! I knit, and am always looking for ways to do it better, or for interesting things to knit.

  11. PS I just checked the schedule for my local PBS station, and they don’t carry the show. Drat.

  13. I’ve never seen this show on our public stations and think I’m really missing out so yes I would love to own this DVD

  14. Did not know of these episodes on TV so thanks for the info.. Would love to add this DVD to my collection of downloaded patterns. Never not knitting.

  16. I would love to watch anything Knit and Crochet on TV. I have not seen anything available. Look forward to DVD.

  21. My PBS station doesn’t carry your show anymore. I did watch it a few years ago and enjoyed it. And learned so much. I would love to have the DVD so I could watch and catch up.

  22. I love watching Knit and Crochet Now! I have been watching it for several years. My PBS station doesn’t always show the most recent ones, so it’s hard to keep up with the newest patterns.

  23. I have crochet a long time and I knit also. I can not find ” Kint and Crochet Now” on my PBS station, so I would love to win. I have never seen your show and I’m sure it is great.

  27. I absolutely do-saturday mornings are the best for all kinds of craft shows, including Knit & Crochet Now.

  29. I love Knit and Crochet Now and would love to win this set. Thank you for the opportunity!

  35. I love Knit and Crochet Now! I have learned so much. I am a crochet girl, but would love to learn to knit. So far I have only seen a couple of the season 7 episodes, loved every second. Hope you keep more seasons coming..???? Thank you!!!!

  41. I have all of the others thanks to Annie’s Attic, but with the new cast and a few of the oldies’ I would love to win season 7…..thank you

  43. I’m so happy that Knit and Crochet Today! is back on PBS! Sadly, I just started a part time job and, sadly, my hours start at 6am…
    I would LOVE to have these dvd’s to watch whenever I liked – fingers crossed! 🙂

  44. Unfortunately I haven’t found any craft shows on tv where I now live. I used to watch Knitting Daily and Beads, Baubles and Jewels on tv in Detroit. Now I watch on the Internet when I can find them.

  47. Love the show, but it’s difficult to find. It would be grand to have the luxury of watching ALL the episodes, whenever I wanted. Just. Wow.

  48. This is one of my favorite shows to watch….very difficult to find on PBS, but well worth it 🙂

  49. I love watching Knit and Crochet Now! I’m so excited about the new season. The patterns are awesome and I really like how the guests slowly illustrate the stitches. Would love to win the season!!! Thanks so much!

  50. I would watch if it was in southeastern CT. The DVD set would be a great teaser but still hope to win!

Fun Halloween Cowls to Knit

One of the fun things about knitters is that we will use a holiday theme on any kind of project. From Easter bunny socks to Christmas sweaters, there’s no combination of holiday motif and knitwear genre we won’t combine. 

Case in point: Halloween cowls. 

This fun cowl from Sweet Vireo Designs features large carved pumpkins and little cats and skulls. It uses two colors of DK weight yarn and I love the multicolored yarn for the background color on this one. And the braids! So cute. 

Spooky Season by Jocelyn Tunney (also on Ravelry) uses fingering weight yarn in two colors to make a design with crescent moons and eyes. There are two circumferences and two heights available so you can make it a neck hugger or a slightly bigger project if you like. 

Make more moons with the Broom Riding Cowl from Vanessa Ewing Knits. This two color pattern looks extra fun with a multicolored yarn for the colorwork, but you can use a solid as well. It calls for DK weight yarn but there is also a fingering weight version if you have some yarn in your stash you want to use. 

Jinx Made has another fun Halloween cowl, this time covered in skulls. South Philly Skulls uses DK weight yarn and comes in two lengths, and there’s also a matching hat pattern, both of which can be found on Ravelry. 

The Ghost Stories cowl from Melissa Knit Wear is a two-color cowl with ghosts of different sizes on the body. It uses DK weight yarn, and average sized skeins will allow you to get two cowls out of two skeins. It also calls for stitch markers to help you keep your place in the chart. 

Or stitch up a cowl with a giant bat on it. The Nightling Cowl from Jen Immer uses DK weight yarn in two colors and has moons and a large bat on it. This pattern can be found on Ravelry. 

How about spooky trees? The Weirwood Cowl from Andrea Krüß-Anders is inspired by the weirwood trees in the Game of Thrones books, and is worked in two colors of fingering weight yarn. You can find this free pattern on Ravelry. 

If a bandana cowl is more your thing, try Cowloween from Tellybean Knits (on Ravelry). This colorful design is worked from the top down and features pumpkins, ghosts and candy colored stripes, and is worked in a light fingering weight yarn. There are kid and adult sizes available.
