***** The Winner is Carol Haines. Congratulation! *****
I am excited to be hosting the 2nd day of Susan B. Anderson‘s blog tour as she promotes her new book Spud and Chloe at the Farm
I’ve always been a fan of Susan’s fun pattern collections, which include Itty-Bitty Nursery
Look at what you can knit!
There’s a mother hen and chicks, piglets, a farm dog, brown cow, barn cat and a barn and picket fence. And of course Spud and Chloe themselves – isn’t Spud adorable?
Susan has a pattern for a lamb in Itty Bitty Toys which I knit for Jonah. He loves him!
Spud is even rounder and squishier, I may have to add him to the collection.
If you’ve never knit anything like this before, don’t be intimidated. Susan’s instructions are always very clear and uncomplicated. Just follow along and before you know it you’re holding an adorable little knitted animal!
Susan’s books appeal to children with their bright photographs of fun knitted toys and babies and children wearing adorable knitwear. At the Farm takes it one step further – there’s a 9 page Spud and Chloe cartoon at the end of the book!
Thanks to Artisan Books, I am happy to be able to offer a copy of Spud and Chloe at the Farm as a giveaway! Leave a comment below to be entered in the contest, and I will choose a winner at random on Monday, April 18.
Congratulations, Susan! What a fun book.
What a fun book! I’d love to knit a few animals.

Looks like a very cute wee book

What a cute book! I have two little boys who would love these creatures. :)
Love these designs! Would love to make them for my friends’ kids!
What a great idea!
The book looks like fun, would love to have it!!!
I’ve read all of Susan’s other book and am so looking forward to this one! Thanks for the chance to win one!
Wonderful! This would be a great addition to my Itty Bitty Toys book!
I love the book and love the designs. I knit up her designs from Itty Bitty Toys for my daughter’s friends as Christmas presents when I was layed up from foot surgery. It distracted me from the pain and made me happy to be immobile for a while. Can’t wait to start my “farm”!
I love all her books, she is the best, her patterns are so well written and she alwayes answeres her emails, which I love about a busy designer.
I would love a copy of this book! Looks wonderful!
This book looks amazing, Susan is such a great writer/designer. Your son is absolutely adorable too!
I’ve been eyeing this very book… great giveaway!
Ooh, I’d love a copy! I was looking at it at my local bookstore this morning.
I love her books!!
I would love a copy of Susan’s new book. Thank you!
What an adorable book! I love little squishy knitted animals. :-)
Love the pics of your darling little boy enjoying Spud and Chloe on the Farm – he looks to be quite the reader!!!!!
This book looks absolutely adorable! I can see why Jonah is such a fan!
Who would think of putting a red bow tie on a sheep? I just love Susan’s sense of whimsy and her blog, and her designs, etc etc. Thanks for the opportunity to win!
I love spud!
I absolutely love her newest book. They certainly whet my appetite for knitting!
Would love to knit Spud! A great book.
Oh, I so hope I win this book!
I would love a copy of this book and to make every animal multiples of times! Can you imagine what beautiful baby shower gifts these would make! and you could keep adding more with each occassion, i.e. birthdays, holidays and special events. In fact, giving the book along with the knitted animals to a baby shower for a knitter; need I say more!! Oh would I ever be so lucky?
I have knit a few toys in the past, but now I’m waiting for the birth of my first grandchild — any day now! — so I’d have lots of use for this book. Thanks for the chance!
I’m totally into those little piggies!
How cute! What a lovely little book.
I love Susan’s books and patterns. I look forward to reading her blog, too.
I love Susan and her books…would love to knit her newest creations!
Toy knitting is so awesome! With a little leftover yarn, you can make something so endearing, and Susan certainly knows how to design the cutest toys.
Such a sweet book! The patterns are so cute.
What adorable designs! They look so fun to knit!!
pretty pretty!
Susan is so clever. I just love her books!
Great Book! Thanks for the opportunity to win! :-)
