A Nifty Knitting Book

Knitters and geeky-knitters should both be glad that Joan of Dark has another book out, Geek Knits, published by St. Martin's Press and available at Barnes & Nobel and other fine stores, Amazon.com, etc.  For more information on price & where to get it, check out her website at
