Enter to win a copy of the new book:
Knitting Without Needles: A Stylish Introduction to Finger and Arm Knitting
by
Anne Weil
Leave a comment in today’s post by September 12, 2015 and you will be entered to win this AMAZING book filled with projects made just with your own two hands (and arms!)
I would call this book an advanced arm and knitting book, not because they are any harder but because the techniques and tutorials are really kicked up to the, “wow I had no idea you could do that with finger or arm knitting”. The projects are beautiful and any fiber lover would appreciate them. I bet most of the arm knitting projects would be great made with recycled T-shirt yarn.
Open to U.S. residents only please.
More about the book from the publisher, Potter Craft:
“Put down those complicated knitting projects that take forever to finish. Knitting Without Needles brings cool home, gifts, and clothing accessories–cowls, totes, rugs, poufs, scarves, and more–within arm’s reach. An all-in-one resource for a new kind of craft, this book shows you how to loop yarn with your fingers or your forearms with thirty patterns that are simple to follow and produce stylish results. Best of all, many of them knit up fast—in less than an hour!
Even if you’ve never picked up knitting needles, you can easily master the techniques to make fun knits with kids and for kids (a princess crown, baby booties) and even last-minute gifts (a statement necklace for your fashionista friend). With stunning photography, plenty of step-by-step photos, and a detailed resource section, Knitting Without Needles is your go-to for a new way to knit.”

I do loom knitting and I have seen several patterns for the finger and arm knitting. I have a terminally ill husband at home, so I am here 24/7, (which I do not mind at all and would rather him here then the alternative), so this would give me something else to do to pass the time and make gifts to boot!
