Pints and purls

the long version

"*Knitting* on the **ROCKS** It's time to take your knitting out on the town! Grab a few friends and your knitting bag and head over to your favorite pub. And if you're worried that knitting and drinking don't mix, perish the thought. Each of the 30+ projects in this book is designed to accommodate the distracted knitter and is portable enough to carry easily. Before you cast on, look for the project's drink rating to determine how much concentration the pattern requires. Most patterns are simple enough for even a beginner (the four-drink patterns are the easiest of all!). And since the patterns are designed with portability in mind, many of them are quick to knit. If you're up for a challenge, check out the designated driver patterns for intense knitting. And the fun doesn't stop with the projects. Look for sassy sidebars throughout the book with tasty recipes, tips and tricks for fixing mistakes, and even a list of stain-free drinks."
