Fun time at Lion Brand Studio

lionbrand8

October 14th we visited the Lion Brand Studio in New York City to present  the Knitting Board and show what it can create. It was lots of fun !! So many customers came in with the impression that you can only make potholders and simple scarves on Knitting Boards. We showed them all kinds of stitches and brought 2 giant suitcases of knitwear. They were really surprised about all that you can create.

Knitting Board Basics Book

Hi  Everyone,
We are really excited to share our latest creative effort….  It is our new Knitting Board Basics book scheduled to be released in July, 2010.  It is being published by St Martins Press and will be available on our website, and is currently ready for pre-sales thru Amazon.com.

book_coversmm

This has been our ongoing project for the past 2 years and now, it is finally nearing completion.  We are in the final editing stage and once it goes to press, we will be sharing it with you.
The book itself contains our cumulative knowledge of using the Knitting Board with over 30 patterns, from really simple to more advanced.  Our goal in writing the book was to create a tool that was basically A-Z on using the Knitting Board so that all loom knitters could refer back to it as a reference on stitches and sewing techniques.
We want to thank all of you for your support of our products and making the creation of our new book possible.  We welcome your thoughts and suggestions as we move forward planning the next edition.
Thank you all!
Kim and Pat Novak
