Leave a comment in today’s post by November 15, 2018 and you are in the running for this classic style sweater knitting book.
Open to U. S. residents only please.
Originally released in 1993, Beth Brown-Reinsel’s bestseller, Knitting Ganseys, is a classic in the hearts of traditional and modern knitters alike, bringing this historic tradition to your needles for 25 years! This completely revised and update version of the perennial bestseller includes 100% new photography, new patterns, and more!
This special edition celebrates with new patterns for sweaters in the traditional gansey style as well as new explorations of modern gansey-inspired patterns. Full-color, step-by-step photography walks you through a variety of traditional gansey techniques and construction methods, plus contemporary sources for traditional gansey yarns are shared, making this as vital to your knitting library as the original.
Would love to add this to my collection of knitting books.
I have been infatuated with Gansey sweaters ever since Fringe Association spotted the Daniel Day-Lewis sweater. My knitting group is considering knitting one as a group project. This book would be a great resource!
I’ve had my eye on this book for some time. Very classic sweaters.
Have never knitted a sweater, I think it is time I try.
Thank you for this wonderful opportunity!
I am planning to knit my first adult size sweater in a few months. I think this book would be very helpful. Thanks.
Ganseys are my absolute favorite style to knit. Wearing some gansey-style socks today! This book has been on my wish list for a very long time. Thanks for doing this.
This would be a lovely addition to my knotting books which consists of how to knot different stitches. Thank you for the opportunity.

What a lovely book!! I’d love to have this in my library.
I would love to have this book. I am always looking for new designs/patterns for sweaters.
I have looked at the book more than nce?. Love dong intricate knits.
I’d love to own this book. My husband is wanting a sweater knit by me.
To me, Gansey sweaters are virtually the ultimate knitted pieces. The elements of this sweater are unique to each knitter, and the results of this basic formula leave room for endless possibilities. I absolutely adore Gansey sweaters, and aspire to learn everything possible about them! As a fairly new knitter, I am acquiring daily skills, and MUST HAVE Beth Brown-Reisel’s ‘Knitting Gansey’s: Revised and Updated’ edition. Thanks for the giveaway!
Ganseys would be a new adventure for me in knitting after all my years of projects. So wonderful to offer us this opportunity to learn and grow with our skills:)
I’ve never heard of a Gansey Sweater. Fun!
Next challenge is to knit a sweater. This book would be perfect! Pick me please!!
What an awesome book! So enjoy the classics!
I am just restarting my knitting hobby after a while off. This book would be excellent to restart, I started with sweaters the first time – I know, weird but the first thing I ever knit was a very large sweater. And these look amazing.
This would be a lovely book to have. Beautiful sweaters.
I have always loved gansey sweaters. Would love to have the book.
Looks like a must have.
I love ganseys. Actually I love just about all textured knitting.
What a great looking book! Thank you for the opportunity~!
This looks like an interesting book! I’ve only made one sweater so far, but I have a few on my list to make!
I haven’t knitted a sweater in years! I would love to knit a Gansey sweater!
My Irish husband has wanted a Gansey sweater- perfect opportunity to grant that wish!
Looks like a wonderful book! I’ve never made a gansey sweater before.
I’ve wanted to design a gansey for a while now. I found a good quantity of Jamieson yarn at a thrift shop which would be perfect. Because this book is more than just patterns, more like a master class really, it would be the best resource. Thanks for the giveaway.
I had never heard of a Gansey before so I learned something today (its the same as Guernsey, btw)
I just returned this to the library, but I would love to have my own copy to work from.
