Knit - A Personal Handbook

Notebook / journal / scrapbook / knitting reference / yarn source, pattern and needle inventory / knitting organisational system. I am loving this so much! I've transcribed all my sock knitting tables, several baby / cat blanket patterns and scarf patterns. There is room to tuck in print-outs of current sweater patterns and a zip pocket in which all my addi turbos have taken up residence along with scissors, pins and wool needles, just in case I need them in a hurry. The whole thing measures about 18cm square - 10".
