Book Review : 30~Minute Knits

Recently i had to made a mini workshop for new knitter in several occasions.
Thinking to knitting something that can be finished in about 2 hour was very difficult. In fact, i'm still thinking about it until this moment.

book tittle - 30~minute knits - 60 quick and easy knitted projects

author - carol meldrum

published by - search press 2012

I accidentally own this book. But after i have it at my bookshelf, it turn out to be one book that i usually open for inspiration!

First, of course when i seeking something that can knit fast before i made mini workshop.. I usually end up make a slight change at every pattern that i choose to try. I don't know why, i just can't help it. :p

coin purse, i add one more eyelet

i started to knit from outside edge

Second, when i (for myself) seeking something that i can knit fast for last-minute gift.

cute mini cushion, i knit as the pattern said

The projects are sweets and truly can be knitted in 30 minutes... for me of course, or if you already know about knitting basic before. But if you are a new knitter who never touch knitting before, you will not finish any of these patterns before 3 hour, even the simplest pattern. It simply because you had to taught them about basic knitting first and made them understand and memorize it before they can started knit from a knitting pattern. And of course, it can't be done in half of an hour.

But for me, this book really help to choose some little knitting inspirations. :)

pile of knitting bunting, basic pattern from this book too.

Happy Knitting!!

Book Review : Animal Hats

Animal Hats by Vanessa Mooncie.
This book had a cover book that will make you want it right away. A teenage girl wearing bunny hat.
And that was also the first pattern i choose to try when this book arrived at my hand.

This book use big size needle, that make you will extremely fast finished your knitting!
She too only used a little variation of decrease technique, and work the hat with Single Pointed Needle (and seam it later), so even a beginner's knitter can make these cute hats!

all the things i need to make the bunny hat

The things that will show the difference of your hat with others who try the same pattern with you is how neat you seam, and place all the small pieces (like checks, nose, ears, and eyes) to your hat.

all the parts before seamed together

I love had this book added to my bookshelf... I think i will reproduced the hats (maybe) a lot because i so like with the result. :D

Paperback, 64 pages

Accidentally (like always) i found this book when i surfing at my favorite online bookstore.
And after (as usual) i googling to 'peek' the pages inside.. i then decided to add this book to my little bookshelf at home.

There are 20 knitted baby booties (and slipper) inside. With beautiful colored photographs which can give you some inspiration on color matching, even if you find no mood to actually knit one of the patterns at the moments.
