Home Knits

If you're tired of knitting up scarves, hats and sweaters and are looking for projects that you can adorn your house with, then look no further than Suss Cousins' Home Knits: Luxurious Handknits for Every Room of the House. This book includes 30 patterns for embellishing your home with knitted accents.

Just skimming through the pages of the book reminds you of the photos you see in home decorating catalogs such as Pottery Barn and Restoration Hardware - highly textured, trendy accents that provide 'just the right touch' to your house. The book is broken down into 3 main categories - the Living Room, Dining Room And Kitchen, and Bedroom And Bath with 10 projects in each category. My favorites? They happen to be the least expected knitted items. Projects such as Buttoned-Up Curtain Tiebacks, Jute Coasters, Striped Seat Covers, and Basketweave Pillows may soon be gracing my own house!

You don't have to be an expert knitter to enjoy this book either. Each project is rated according to difficulty - ranging from beginner to experienced. All the items in the book have instructions and illustrations when necessary to guide you through completing the project.

If you're looking for something a bit different or just want to add some warmth to your house, you may want to check out Home Knits - it definitely fits the bill!
