The Knit & Crochet Notebook from Mama's Notebooks Review & Giveaway

I received a copy of The Knit & Crochet Notebook: Project Planner and Organizer for the purpose of this review.  




Hi.  My name is Rachel and I have project ADD.

I will be the first to admit it.  I rarely, perhaps never, have only one project going at a time.  (Currently I have a cowl, a hat, a scarf, a capelet, and a few other projects on the hooks or needles.)  So, when Heather asked me if I'd be interested in reviewing her The Knit & Crochet Notebook: Project Planner and Organizer I gave her a resounding yes! 



This notebook will help you to organize your thoughts, customizations, and designs for knit and crochet projects. It features project pages for each project, an easy-reference table of contents at the beginning to help you keep track of individual projects, a hook and needle tracker, a project wish list, a guide to easy measuring with charts to keep measurements for the people you make things for, and a standard yarn weight reference—all in one notebook! This spiral bound notebook is easy to flip through and has graph paper to help you with your designs.

The first thing that I noticed as I took my book out of it's envelope (other than it's cute) is that it is a great size.  There are just over eighty pages, but it still tucks easily and neatly into a yarn tote or basket.  This is great because then it can always be at your fingertips!  


Inside there are lots of pages for project notes as well as some handy reference pages.  (Reference pages include: How to Measure, a Measurement Chart, and a Standard Yarn Weight Reference.)  Below is a page from mine that shows my favorite kid's crochet hat pattern.  This is a pattern that I use often and have tweaked in my own special way from time to time.  (This is the pattern I used to make The Orange Hat!)


This notebook is definitely something that I will use and refer back to for years!  I would recommend it to anyone who crochets or knits -- especially if they tend to have multiple projects going at once! 

Heather has generously offered to supply one lucky reader with their own copy of The Knit & Crochet Notebook!  

PS: Right now she is offering free shipping!  Go {here} for all of the details.  (Ends December 15, 2013.)
