Birthday Wishes

Tomorrow (Sept 1) is my birthday and I wish to give away a gift--any of my print books or the new cast-on/bind-off DVD.
Respond to this post by midnight Saturday to tell me which you'd like (only one entry per person, please) and I use the trusty random-number generator to choose a winner Sunday (Sept 2) morning.
Click here for a list of books.
Unfortunately, I don't have access to eBooks, video downloads, or apps so they are disqualified from this offer.
Enjoy the holiday weekend!

  52. Such generosity! And on your birthday too! Have a very happy birthday! What a tough decision between such great references! I have checked out Sock Knitting Master Class from the library at least 3 times. I haven't seen Knitter's Handy Book of Top-Down Sweaters yet but I sent in a request for the library to purchase copies and they are now on order. I wish books were in my budget to buy myself! Anyway, I guess if I had to choose it would be Knitter's Handy Book of Top-Down Sweaters since I am very anxious to see it!
