Kat Valentine’s Lace Book Going Big Time!

Posted on April 17, 2011 by

Hi Joe,

Since you’ve been so supportive of indie writers and indie publishing I had to tell you this. My book of knitted lace shawl designs, The Mermaid Shawl & other Beauties: Shawls, Cocoons & Wraps is now available for Kindle on Amazon and is their #1 Top Rated Lace Knitting book as well as the #20 Top Rated Needlework book for Kindle. It is also currently the #6 Best Seller in Lace Knitting, the #20 Best Seller in Needlework and the #47 Best Seller for KNITTING! All on Kindle. Here is the link: The Mermaid Shawl & other Beauties for Kindle

It has also gotten lots of compliments for all the gorgeous photographs of Gloucester. (That’s Ten Pound Island and the Lannon on the cover.)

    Aw, thanks, Joe.

    I just uploaded my second in a series of knitting patterns to Amazon’s Kindle store — Sumptuous Silk Bags: Learn Entrelac & More. Then I came here and found this! The new instruction booklet will be available in a couple days.

    Thanks again!
