Ann Shayne and Kay Gardiner, of Modern Daily Knitting fame, launched a new series of travel-sized pattern books, and we're so pleased to finally have them in our shop. Starting with the most current issue (No.12), each edition will have a theme and contain patterns, along with essays, tips and bonus features. And each beautiful little hardcopy comes with a download code for the digital version, so you get it both ways!

• Field Guide 12 (pictured) is Big Joy, featuring five funky, chunky projects designed by Jen Geigley — a cowl, a cardigan, two hats, and a throw — plus a deceptively simple trick for making “stockinette” pie crust!
