Use Free Knitting Resources and Save Money
Today is Frugal Friday...
All you need to knit is a couple of needles and a skein or two of yarn. So, knitting is an inexpensive hobby... right? That's funny, isn't it?
Technically, knitting is an inexpensive hobby - unless you're addicted. You hard-core knitters know exactly what I'm talking about. We continually need more yarn for our stash. We need how-to-videos and knitting books. We need knitting patterns and the list goes on and on. This is what adds up. This is what makes knitting change from an inexpensive hobby to a pricey diversion.
If you fall into the 'addicted' category and can't seem to stop buying knitting pattern and instruction books - not to mention DVDs - today's newsletter is here to help. Break away from constantly buying knitting supplies, books, and patterns with help from today's free resources.

When you first start knitting, you buy the pair of needles called for by your pattern. Then, the next pattern you knit needs another size. Then, the next pattern needs yet another size still. You know what I'm talking about.
One way to stop buying so many different pairs of knitting needles and getting caught without the right size is to buy needles in sets. This way, you get a discount by buying your needles in 'bulk'.
The perfect site to buy needles in bulk is through eKnittingNeedles.com. Here, the sets not only save you money, but they sell their sets for discount prices AND you get 100% free shipping if you buy more than $15.

Today's Featured Product:
Online videos are great to have - especially when they're free, but I really don't recommend knitting without at least one good reference book. There are many knitting reference books available, but I recommend The Complete Photo Guide To by Margaret Hubert.
For the modest price of $16, you get step-by-step instructions with step-by-step photos, plus you get all the basic information about supplies, yarns, needles, and gauge. You also get photos for over 200 knitting stitches with instructions. This book is an invaluable reference to keep with you at all times - especially when you don't have access to the Internet.
