CARRI HAMMETT’S NEW BOOK

Ready, Set, Knit Cables: Learn to Cable with 20 Designs and 10 ProjectsFor the second year in a row, Carri Hammett (the owner of the shop) has a new book hitting yarn shops and book stores nation wide.  Her new book is called Ready, Set, Knit Cables.  If you’ve never knit cables, this is a perfect book because it teaches you cables from beginner to advanced.  If you’re a confident cable knitter you’ll still love Carri’s book because the projects are so unique and beautiful. 

 

 

Shop owner, Carri Hammett, is the author of two books.  Scarves and Shawls for Yarn Lovers, is available nationwide but we hope you buy  it from us.  The book features 20 different projects all knit from the kind of scrumptious yarns that Coldwater Collaborative is famous for.  The book can be used by beginners but experienced knitters will also find it very inspirational.  Carri would be happy to autograph the book for you; stop into the shop or call to reserve your copy.  We are also happy to ship autographed copies; if you are interested, send an email to   info@coldwateryarn.com
