Patty Lyons’ Knitting Bag of Tricks giveaway results
Thank you so much to everyone who took the time to leave a comment for last week’s giveaway!
If you missed it, last week’s post was a review of Mindful Knitting by Chloé Elizabeth Birch and Patty Lyons’ Knitting Bag of Tricks (Amazon links), and the publishers of Patty Lyons’ book had kindly given me an extra copy to give away. I asked you what your favourite item to knit was and I had a lovely time reading your answers! Lots of socks (as I had hoped!) but also so many other projects to be loved and cherished – heirloom blankets, clothes for babies and toddlers, accessories to brighten up someone’s day and keep you warm – I had a huge smile on my face every time a new comment came in!
Sadly, though I only have one copy of the book to give away and so the trusty Random.org widget generator was pressed into service once again and this is the result that it came up with …
Carole – it’s you! I do hope you’ve fixed your bookcase now as you’re about to get another book to add to it! 🙂
Can you drop me an email please (the contact box is on the left hand side) and then I can get it posted out to you?
Thank you again to everyone who took part, and I’m sorry I couldn’t send you all a book! I do hope you’ve had plenty of time over the Christmas holidays to sit with your knitting! xx
Such a good book, bought before the giveaway, but lots of tips in use already. Tension squares!!
It’s great, isn’t it? So much information in there and conveyed in such an easy to understand way, too! xx
Thanks for your latest message & keeping in touch.
All the best to you and yours for 2023 too
Have a lovely weekend
Happy Knitting
Love Ruth x

I bought 2 copies of this book for my daughter and myself. It’s wonderful and is going to be really useful for our long distance messenger tutorials!!!
Yes, I can really imagine that it is, I think everything you can think of is covered! 🙂 xx
Congrats to Carole. It’s just clicked over 12 midnight so happy New Years Eve from downunder. Xxxx
Happy New Year’s Eve! xx
Congrats to the winner!
Happy New Year to all!
Happy New Year to you too! xx
Happy 2023, Christine! May the new year bring us lots of socks 😁
Oh that sounds like the best kind of New Year! 🙂 xx
Congrats to Carole. Happy New Year. If i can conquer your mitten pattern they may become my new favorite thing to knit. I had put the books on my Christmas wish list and did receive them. My only problem is the printing is very light making it difficult to read. Do wonder if I have a bad copy.
I’ve had a look at mine, Charlotte, and the Patty Lyons book print is quite pale, and the print in both of them is quite small. I’m not sure that you have a bad copy but I do think you need to look at them in good light xx
I wish you a very good 2023 Christine – Christmas was interesting with my husband deciding to start stripping the wallpaper in our kitchen to make way for new tiles and worktops sometime in the new year. Any cooking done was a bit of a challenge! Next year my daughter wants another headband (or 2), more scrunchies and I have to unpick a sweater I no longer enjoy wearing as it is. Husband happy with the sweater he received.
Oh goodness, that may not have been the best timing – although well done for managing to get the cooking done! It sounds like your knitting year is well-planned already! 🙂 xx
This is a go to book. Bought 2 and her little bag as well one for me and one for my stepdaughter. Met her at a knit retreat in Ontario where she embellished the book process. $ well spent
Oh that sounds fab! Patty is certainly a mine of information and I bet she was great to chat to as well! 🙂 xx
Hi Christine, thanks for your email and blog, congrats to your winner – Carole, I now have and idea for for birthday at the end of Jan! Meantime I’m plodding along with a pair of socks using your bible – 1st one nearly done…… Happy New Year to everyone
Oh well done for nearly having finished your first sock! Yes, I think the book would make a great birthday present, there’s something in there for whatever project you might knit! 🙂 xx
Happy New Year to everyone! May it be peaceful and healthy too!
Wishing you a very happy New Year too! xx
Congratulations on your win, Carole! What a fun giveaway!
It was lovely to have the book to give away! 🙂 xx
A Happy New Year to Christine and all my fellow blog followers around the world.xx
