Twist & Knit

Twist & Knit Cover

FINALLY, Pre-orders are up here for Twist & Knit: A Dozen Knitted Patterns for Handspun, Hand-dyed and One-of-a-kind Yarns. Or if you’re interested, I’m selling limited edition hand-sewn hard-bound copies of the book here.

Every knitter knows the frustration of running out of yarn. This nagging fear is compounded when the yarn is one-of-a-kind or hand-dyed and simply heartbreaking when you’ve spent hours spinning the yarn yourself. This book offers twelve patterns specifically designed to get the most out of your unique yarn. All of the patterns have small repeats, very flexible gauge, or carefully selected construction to allow you to use every yard of yarn without sacrificing wearability.

  • 12 patterns
  • 27 pages of supporting material, including technique tutorials.
  • Highly versatile patterns for a variety of yarn weights, with instructions given for modifications in width and length.
  • Fully charted patterns

And I thought I’d outline all the purchase options for you here.

The print book (or the limited edition hand-sewn hardbound book) can be purchased with a digital add-on from the link above. The digital add-on includes all of the patterns except Cleite, which is under contract and will allow you to have the individual pattern pdf files (which include the text translations of the charts) added to your ravelry library. The downloads are all available now, while the books will be shipped once they’re released.

If you don’t want the print book all the patterns in the digital add-on are available individually and in three digital collections at a substantial discount from their individual prices.

Collection #1
Collection #1 includes Lune, Vinca, Motte and Comfy

Collection #2
Collection #2 includes Colonnade, Tudor, Transverse and Dropleaf

Collection #3
Collection #3 includes Porifera, Gable and Windward

I hope you all enjoy this offering :) If you’re a yarn store interested in purchasing the books wholesale, e-mail me to miriam AT mimknits DOT com for info

Best,
Miriam

Congratulations Miriam!!

Yay! Congrats!!

Congratulations! All of these look … mmm, just amazing. I’m going to have to budget a bit for the PDFs, but it will happen for sure!

I absolute adore these patterns! What would be the best way to purchase them all? I understand that the book includes only 12 patterns?

Elizabeth, the print book includes all of the patterns (with charts, not text). So if you want all 12 patterns, the print book is the way to go. If you need the text directions, you can get the digital add-on which has 11 patterns in it (not Cleite). Cleite can be purchased separately, but contractually I can’t include Cleite in a digital collection.

oh, the book looks just gorgeous! Wonderful photography & of course lovely patterns. Congrats!

Hey Mim, This looks great! I ordered the book with the digital add on. Am I supposed to be able to download the patterns now? I’m a little confused.

Having some technical difficulties. I’ve e-mailed you :)

Gorgeous! I’m off to order…

Just lovely, Miriam.

Yay – been waiting for Vinca ever since you first put up a picture.

These are great! Congrats on the book, too. Something to look forward to for a lot of people; I can’t be the only person whose first lace project was one of your patterns. :)
