 Sweet Shawlettes blog tour is all set up now and I'm SO excited! It's a truly stellar tour of some of the best US knit blogs - check them out for yourself. There'll be reviews, giveaways, Q&As, podcasts and more - I hope you'll get involved and join the conversation, you may even win a free copy!
Released now in North America and was due on 7th March in the UK, however I've noticed that it's available nowon Amazon and at the Telegraph Bookshop in the UK.
I'm truly delighted with this book - take a look at a sneak preview of the project gallery or read the first review from Publisher's weekly, or a couple of reviews on amazon.com. |
| What a huge success this was! My sincere thanks go to both the stellar bloggers for so generously reviewing my book and also to each of the hundreds of knitters who left lovely comments. For those of you who missed the tour but would like to check out the reviews and comments, the permalinks are now in place. |
