Knit A Monster Nursery

I was so excited this week to see that all the pictures are out and up on Ravelry and Amazon for my second book, Knit A Monster Nursery! This was such a huge, amazing project for me and I am so excited to get to start sharing it with you all. It doesn't come out until November 9th, but I am starting to get very excited about it!

Yup, that's Presley on the cover! What a proud Mama I am of my little model. He has pictures all throughout the book. Love it!

This book is so super special to me, it is filled with all the projects I designed and made for Presley's room. It is full of blankets, hats, booties, sweaters, and toys, all with a monster theme. I am so excited about it since it is different than the just monster patterns I have done in the past, though there are still plenty of monster patterns in here as well. I am also super excited because after having a baby boy, I realized that there is a deficinency of awesome baby boy knitting patterns out there. I made sure all the projects in this book would be perfect for boys and girls. I am excited and really loving to hear the great feedback from every one already. If you want to check out most of the patterns in the book, you can hop on Ravelry, or click the "See All Product Images" link on Amazon .

I have had a flood of questions since the pictures went up, so I wanted to answer a few things to clear everything up:

Is Knit A Monster Nursery actually $1166.00, like it is listed on Amazon?
No. There was a typo and the price on Amazon went in as $2012 (the year). The book is actually $22.99. It should be corrected soon on Amazon, a problem ticket has been filed but it has not been fixed as of me typing this. If you want to pre-order it, you can do so now and they will not charge you until the book ships and will give you the lowest price between now and then. Or, Knit Picks has it for the correct price and will notify you when it is available. OR, I will have pre-orders available through my etsy shop and website right around September 15th (about 2 months before it releases).

Where can I buy Knit A Monster Nursery?
You can pre-order it now through the channels I mentioned above, or you can find it at your local yarn shop or library after it releases in November.

Will Knit A Monster Nursery be available as a digital download?
Yes, the ebook version will be available through Martingale after it releases November 9th. 

Can I get the patterns from the book before it is released?
No. All patterns will be available after November 9th when the book is released. 

Can you let me know the yardages needed for a project in the book now?
Yes. All the yardages and other necessary details are on the Ravelry project pages now. 

So you are sure Knit A Monster Nursery is not $1166?
I am positive. BUT, if anyone does want to pay me that much, I will come hand-deliver a copy in person to you! Just email me and we will set it up.

I will keep adding to this post as I get more questions, too!

So excited! Now you all just have to be patient for 3 more months =).

I am so excited for this book! And will definitely be ordering it so i can knit, knit, knit for my baby Liam's room!

Oh, I'm so excited! I think the patterns would be perfect for a girl too, as too many girl patterns can err on the side of sickly sweet. Girls (and grown women) love monsters too! :-D

Oh the book looks like so much fun! I love the cover picture.

The $1166 is very tempting just so I would get to see your face :) Super excited to see the new book!

Can't wait for this book! I get the feeling I'll be using it a lot :) I used your monter sewing patten to make a bazillion (ok not really) monsters for my son's 1st birthday in May and these patterns look awesomes. Only a month to wait!
