Express your colorful side! The patterns in Geometric Knit Blankets are inspired by quilts, tiles, and other color block designs. Every blanket is a stunning feast for the eyes, and all are for the intermediate knitter or confident beginner. Knit them as shown or choose colors you love best or that work with your decor. The construction of each blanket is fully and beautifully illustrated, and the techniques used to make each item are clearly listed so you know what is involved. Many blankets offer two methods of construction, so you can choose to knit with techniques you favor. The blankets feature an abundance of different geometric shapes: squares, rectangles, triangles, diamonds, hexagons, circles. The individual blocks for a given blanket can also be rearranged to make additional designs. These blankets are so much fun you will want to make them all!

Meet the KnitWits, a wacky family whose silly wordplay mix-ups both teach and entertain. “Sleep tight, KnitWits,” Mrs. KnitWit called. So everyone snuggled in as close as they could. Because the KnitWits are a tightly knit bunch. In this charming and original picture book, it’s time for the KnitWits to move into their new home. After unpacking, they decide to celebrate with a housewarming party! How do they “warm up” their house? By wrapping it in blankets, of course! Then they “serve” snacks with a racket; and when it’s time to “ice” the cake, into the freezer it goes! After all the fun and excitement, the KnitWits are all tuckered out, and it’s bedtime for this tightly knit family. Playful twists on language paired with stunning mixed media artwork make for a lively and entertaining read that is a joy to share again and again!

With the publication of Katie Boyette's third book Wearable KnitWits, fans can now have their monsters and wear them too. After writing two books of toy patterns, Boyette is excited to take a totally new direction: wearables. And it all began with a pair of giant feet. A couple of years ago, she decided to knit a pair of slippers that looked like monster feet. They were an instant hit with her kids and adults and even better, everyone who saw them was reduced to fits of giggles: a perfect combination of silliness and functionality. In Wearable KnitWits youll find patterns that are cute, stylish, or just downright silly, but theyre all designed to elicit a smile, such as: the Accordian Hand Warmer, Baby Monster socks, Cable Knit Yeti Scarf, Cyclops Monster Hat, and 16 more designs. Boyette brings her background in studio art to this collection of knitted toys, which are simple to knit, easy to customize, and fun to finish. In addition to animals and interestingly shaped monsters, Boyette includes patterns that capitalize on the craze for vampires and pirates. If you've ever wanted to make a vampire panda for your favorite True Blood fanatic, this is your book. --Nanette Donohue, Library Journal's BookSmack reviewing KnitWits
