pacific knits is 92 pages of knitting goodness filled with bright photographs, clear instructions and well written patterns and charts. the book has sections on techniques and also an in depth section on sweater knitting and sizing that is very handy to have. there are cables, lace and colorwork, plus designs for all sizes that are rustic and pretty. having lived in british columbia my whole life, and vancouver for many, many years before relocating to vancouver island it was so fun to see images of my old stomping grounds as well as shots from some of my fave places to visit such as where i got married - tofino, bc.
i adore the book and the ladies of pacific knits too. i've been lucky enough to have gotten to meet alexa and also some of the models in the book (whom are their family and friends) and they are all sweet and oh, so lovely people. so if you're looking to spoil yourself or treat another knitter in your life pick up a copy of pacific knits for the holidays.

i think pacific knits is a wonderful addition to any knitters collection. you can purchase the print version of pacific knits, the e-collection or purchase any of the 18 patterns as an individual pattern as well here on their website or by visiting their pacific knits ravelry page.
and while you're over at tin can knits make sure you check out their new holiday collection called "great white north". a lovely e-book filled with scrumptious knits just in time for the holidays! sweaters, hats, cowls, and even ornaments - it's a great set of 8 patterns perfect for christmas.
thanks so much alexa and emily! you ladies rock! you can find more tin can knits here:
