STRANDED COLOR KNITTING BOOKLET



The booklet is finally ready. I'm happy with the booklet and the way the photos and graphs came out. The cover photo is pretty pathetic but I've never had any graphics talent. Go to our Four Corners Bunnies Cafepress shop at http://www.cafeshops.com/4cornersbuns and it is on the top of the page. The price is $9.99.



There are 36 pages with black and white photos and chapters on Color Jogs, Choosing Colors, How to Hold the Yarns, Floats vs. Weaving, Knitting from Charts, Tension Problems, Working in the Ends, and Blocking Your Knitting. There are two hat patterns - one written with extra details for new color knitters and a Norwegian Star Hat that uses three colors. All money from the booklet goes to the nonprofit Colorado House Rabbit Society in Denver and its satellite, Four Corners Bunnies which covers southwestern Colorado and Albuquerque.



While you are at the Cafepress shop - check out some of our cool rabbit merchandise. I've recently added a few photos and items. I personally find the Peaches the rabbit flying disc hilarious. If you absolutely hate the book you have 30 days to return it although shipping charges are not refundable. You can also shop at multiple Cafepress stores in one swoop and save on shipping. Cafepress has a current offer where you can save $3 on any order of $25 or more that expires June 8.



Thank you for all your interest. Wednesday I will show you some of the wonderful rabbit goofballs Four Corners Bunnies has found adoptive homes for in the past few years other than the fabulous Miss Peaches.
