I’m going to take the easy way out and just copy some of the text from my announcement email list:
After much ado, Cooperative Press is ready to take pre-orders for my new book, Extreme Double-Knitting: New Adventures in Reversible Colorwork.
For those of you unfamiliar with the book’s content, this is poised to be the go-to reference book for anyone looking to push double-knitting to its limits in his or her own designs. At nearly 200 full-color pages, with over 170 technique illustrations, this book will take you from basic double-knitting through some of the most unusual things that can be done with the technique, with 14 patterns to give you practice in the new techniques. It is my hope that people will take these techniques and use them to begin designing their own “extreme” double-knitting patterns.
If you’re like me, you’ve been eagerly awaiting the day you get your hands on a copy of my book. If you play your cards right, however, you might even be able to get your hands on one before I do! For a limited time, Cooperative Press will be taking pre-orders for the Print + PDF pack at $23.95 plus shipping. Once the books begin shipping, the price will go up to $29.95. So order now, get your book before all your friends, and save some money to boot! This offer is available only to direct customers. Retailers should be in touch with Shannon at Cooperative Press for wholesale pricing.
As soon as I have a print date, I’ll post it up here. For now, however, just rest assured that it’s coming soon.
Pre-order in, waiting breathlessly by the mailbox! Congratulations on the book!
I can’t get the link to load past the photo of the PDF version….is it available for overseas order? I was hoping to get the deal of the book and the PDF please.
It should be — but you should send this comment to the cooperative press preorder page since they have something to do with the ordering system whereas I have not …
Do you know whether your book will be one of those eligible to be chosen by folks who gave money to Shannon’s kickstart drive?
I am SO psyched that this is nearly here!
Mazal tov!
I would imagine so — if she hasn’t fulfilled such things yet, then it seems likely that anything in the current catalog when she does fulfill will be eligible — but you’d have to ask Shannon about that.
I discovered your designs via Interweave magazine, I cannot wait for the book. I can’t place my order until I get paid but I am willing to pay whatever the price. The designs I have seen are so beautiful. I can’t wait to try it.
Awesome book! So glad I downloaded it…great job thank you:)
