This book contains interesting instructions for seasonal holidays. Most models are intended for experienced knitters. Patterns include knitting, working in the round, etc. This is an opportunity to give some cute gifts while practicing your knitting skills. This is a step up from the usual quick gifts of crafted books.

  • One year trial
Cons
  • Available in white only

  • Great for a small home
Cons

Pros
  • Easy setup
Cons
