Karey is the winner!
Last month I shared a couple of little booklets from Leisure Arts all about knitting quick afghans and blankets, and this week I’m giving you the change to get them for yourself.
The booklets are:
Make in a Weekend Afghans to Knit
by Rita Weiss
Quick Throws to Knit by Rena V. Stevens
In all these books have 14 patterns for quick-knit warmers to throw on the back of your couch or give as housewarming gifts.
If you’d like a chance to win these, leave a comment on this post before the end of the day Sunday, April 16. I’d love to hear about your favorite knit blanket, whether you made it or someone made it for you. My super simple Bulky Stockinette Throw is the blanket I use the most, and I love it.
Thanks for visiting, commenting and sharing, and good luck!

Wow, cool! I still have to give a try to my first blanket!
My favorite knit blanket is one that my daughter received as a family hand me down. It’s nice to have things that were made by a grandparent for someone else that has survived the test of time.
I participated in the BERNAT Blanket Stitch Along knit version last year. At first I wasn’t crazy about the design but then when the applied cable border was added, oh my word I’m in love with that design!! I’m planning to make another using just one of the stitch patterns and all in one color or solid blanket with contrasting border.
I’m knitting a Ten-Stitch blanket to use up leftover yarn.
I would love an opportunity at winning these booklets. I haven’t knitted in years and would like to get back in to knitting. I crochet and do counted cross stitch. Needlework has become a passion.
I’m a beginner knitter and would love to try some of these patterns.
Blankets and afghans are the perfect project for evening quiet time in front of the TV or listening to the radio. My favorite pattern was a broomstick lace blanket I made to go in our new family room – it went very quickly and is very warm to snuggle under on snowy nights. These new booklets are bound to entice me to create another for my daughter’s new family room!
Big and Fluffy what more could anyone want.
I love knitting blankets for gifts. My favorite is one I knit from all the leftovers from previous year’s projects
I would love to win these. It would be so wonderful take a pattern book with me instead of having to print them.
what a great give-a-way.
I would love to win these books. I’m a beginner knitter. The afghans would make lovely gifts for everyone!
I haven’t made a knit blanket yet! I’ve made plenty of crochet ones . I would love to try knitting one though!
What a great couple of booklets to add to my library. Thanks for offering them. I’ve only knitted a couple of throws on size 50 needles. Anxious to try some others.
I made a really nice (IMHO) blanket last year that keeps me warm watching telly.
