Tot Toppers Drawing Giveaway!


On Episode 55, I had the pleasure of interviewing designer Kate Oates about her latest book, Math For Hats. This is a great little book packed full of useful information for hat knitters of all levels. I will be putting my copy to good use!

The winner will receive a signed copy of Kate's new book, Math For Hats, along with two really cute Tot Toppers tees and even a tin of her homemade lip balm! 

I'll be announcing the winner here on August 15th, so be sure to check back and see if you have won!

Drawing Now Closed! 
Congratulations to grandmastatus, the winner!

Kate is my kind of knitter. I love the math of knitting and using algebra to be creative. I love to be free to use any yarn or gauge iI want to be as creative as I want. I would love to win this book, but I will buy it anyway after the drawing. Go Kate and Alana!

I love knitting hats! I've devised my own patterns a couple of times while making quick Christmas gifts for friends (who love wearing hats). But every time I worry that it isn't gonna fit right, or sit the right way. A book of mathematical guidelines for hat-making would be a great boon and confidence booster. Not to mention I tend to use a lot of math when I knit, trying to adjust patterns for perfect fit anyway.

SarahSunshine said...

Gosh, this really is just what I need. My non-knitting friend sent me here from your baby dolly pattern and while browsing your hats I remembered an abandoned project from last Autumn because I couldn't make the stitches add up while adapting a pattern!
I really hope I'm the lucky one.
