Knitting Magazines.

Four back issues of Vogue Knitting's dreadful Knit.1. Sold to a colleague through the ICN for $2.00 each.

I really, really, really hate the designs in this magazine. I used to like them. Now I just find them so tacky!

Knitting Book.

Yes, yet another knitting book: Vogue Knitting's Very Easy Knits. Sold in via the ICN at work for $15.00.

Yup, still getting rid of lots of knitting patterns. So freeing!

Book.

Knitting in the Nordic Tradition by Vibeke Lind. Sold to a colleague via the ICN for $5.00.

This was the first knitting book I ever purchased. This was back in the days before knitting was the hot new thing and I was looking to learn the basics. This book taught me absolutely nothing, nor did it have any projects in it. Knowing what I know now I would never have gone to Chapters looking to learn how to knit.

Knitting magazines and book.

OK, so it's not technically tomorrow yet, but I can't sleep so I figured I'd make my morning routine a little lighter and put this post up 18 minutes early. Sue me.
Knit.1 Spring 2005, Family Circle Easy Knitting and Crochet Holiday 2004 & Fall 2005, Get Creative July 2005, Vogue Knitting International Summer 2005 & Spring/Summer 2006, Interweave Knits Fall 2005 & Spring 2006, Better Homes & Gardens Hip Knits. Sold via the ICN at work.

I realized just how much space these books and magazines were taking up. I made a PDF of the patterns I wanted to keep, then sold off the bulky books.

Knitting needles.

Knitting needles of various gauges. Gave them to Kari.

In my seemingly never-ending purge of stuff I don't want to move, I went through my knitting needles and realized I had duplicates and triplicates of needle sizes. So off they go to another knitter!
