A New Knitting Book!

A Knitting Adventure with South African Yarn

Today I am so happy to write about a book that a wonderful friend of mine, Dana, has just had published. The book is called, 'A Knitting Adventure with South African Yarn' by Dana Biddle. Dana has been busy writing this book for the past few years, it is filled with gorgeous patterns and includes the stories of all the South African yarn makers. There is something for everyone in this book, I love it!
I was most honoured when Dana approached me to include two of my knitting patterns, the Aardvark and the Guined Fowl in her book.

If you would like to purchase a copy, you can buy directly from Dana or myself, just email me at lindadawkins@mweb.co.za and I will send you a Paypal invoice and post a copy off to you:)
