Book Review: Knits for Dolls and a Book Giveaway!

| Filed Under: Book Reviews, Giveaways

**This giveaway has closed.  Please see below for the winner!**

Hi friends! Today I am part of a blog book tour for the new book, Knits for Dolls by Nicky Epstein.  If you knit and you happen to know anyone who has a love for 18-inch dolls (ahem, like say an American Girl doll!) then you will love this book! It is chock full of really cute outfits and accessories to dress them up from head to toe.

This book has some seriously cute outfits…I mean, c’mon!  Look at this!  Can I get a knit pattern of this dress and hat in my size???

Gah!  And check out these teeny little socks!

Ok, so I think I am partial to the winter outfits.  Check this one out…how sweet is that! 
This book not only has 25 knit outfit patterns but it also has lots of accessory patterns too so you can really doll up your doll!  I think most of the patterns are easy to moderate in difficulty and I would dare say that even a beginner knitter would be able to get the majority of them done especially with the help of the Glossary and Techniques section in the back. 
So are you ready to win a copy of this fabulous book?

      Oh, what an awesome book!
      I love knitting all kinds of stuff, variety is the spice of life 🙂 winter accessories are my favorite since we have such a loooong winter in N.Dakota and they are usually quick & one-skein projects 🙂

      I love knitting baby hats and bibs. I also enjoy knitting dishcloths because they are quick and easy. Scarves and leg/arm warmers are also up there on my list of favorites too!!
