Leigh Radford has released another volume of quick and fashionable knits designed but this time, the patterns can use up to 2 skeins of yarn! These projects lend themselves to gift giving, but you will also want to knit several of the patterns for yourself! There are several classic accessory patterns, such as fingerless mitts, a top down hat with earflaps, a cowl, and a few scarves. The baby chapter features several smart baby patterns such as a kimono sweater, a garter stitch cardigan, knitted baby soaker pants, and baby legwarmers, which are a favorite among new moms at the Knit Picks office. Next is a section for knitted bags and purses. The Silk Gelato Clutch is particularly interesting because Leigh Radford knits silk ribbon along with chenille for a tactile and elegant handbag. Finally is a home decor chapter. As a knitter, it would be fun to decorate your own home with knitted placemats, serving trays, or vases. 30 patterns—128 pages  | softcover Retail: $19.95 Item No. 31267
