The Book is Here!

Leanne and I with our spanking new book!

When Leanne and I went for a meeting with our publisher on Monday afternoon, we never suspected they’d surprise us with a stack of our books! We thought it was still being printed, and that we wouldn’t see it until September. We’re so thrilled with how it turned out, it’s absolutely beautiful!

It will soon be widely available, but you can buy a copy today from Arsenal – they’ll include one of the cute yarn bombing buttons Leanne designed.

    I am laughing at the thought of the anti knit graffiti manifesto crowd when they see this in the shops. ;)

    I am delighted for you both, congratulations and I can’t wait to see it.
    Cheers

    Received my package yesterday! Wonderful work, the book looks gorgeous and is seriously well laid out. Lovely photos too. I’ll be bringing it by my local yarn shop- they have a knit tree out front and I’m sure they’ll love it. Thanks for doing this book!!

    Just another congratulations to you fabulous women for a beautiful book. I’ve been letting myself read it in small installments to keep it exciting, and it’s been a treat to read. Plus, I got a tweet from a friend about your upcoming appearance at Fancy Tiger Crafts as blogged in the New Yorker online! http://www.newyorker.com/online/blogs/books/2009/08/yarn-bombers.html. Congrats again on making a splash in the yarn-bombing world!
