Last night I went to The Weaving Works for their first drop-in spinning session and arrived before the door was open. Instead of waiting in the car, I decided to walk over to Half Price Books to kill time.
I go over there every once and a while to check out the knitting section but haven’t found anything of interest until last night. This time I found a copy of The Principles of Knitting by June Hemmons Hiatt for $14.98! The back cover has a water stain but the front cover and pages are fine.
OMG, you lucky, lucky girl, Melinda!

I’m so envious! If you decide you’d rather have some yarn instead, just let me know and I’m sure we could work out a deal! Seriously, congrats!

Congratulations – that’s quite a find, and I can’t really think of a knitter I know who would put it to better use.

Get out! I saw you looking through it (which I thought was odd since we were spinning). That’s like a knitter’s dream.

good score! i bought that years ago when it was still in print, and it’s a very handy reference book. i also really like the vogue knitting book. i look at my knitting books across the mantle, and wonder, who will i will these to someday? i LOVE my knitting library … and have you seen some of the new knitting books? geez! i’m running out of mantle space.
