To Knit a Ghost - by Z B Asterplume (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

A crafty little witch and cast of distracting ghosts give knitting advice in this sweet and funny story that includes step-by-step instructions so little ones can knit their very own ghost!

Knitting a ghost is easy.
To knit a ghost, you need to cast on some stitches.
Cast? Like a spell?
Nope. Different kind of casting.

Join a little witch on her knitting journey as she navigates ghostly distractions, a hungry cat, tangled yarn... and learns that real magic comes from not giving up--even when things become trying.

Includes Knitting for Little Witches at the back, a step-by-step knitting guide so your little witches can put their newly acquired skills to use! Perfect for grown-up crafters to share with kids or for young knitters eager to try their first project.

About the Author

Z.B. Asterplume is an author and illustrator of picture books who is frequently both distracted and inspired by the ghosts coming out of Heather Brockman Lee's teacups. She has knitted one small rectangle, using very fat needles, for her cat to sleep on; but aspires to knit a ghost with the help of this book. She is the illustrator of Rainbow Cookies written by Leslea Newman, and both the author and illustrator of Sometimes, A Tiger. She lives with her husband in Colorado, close but not quite close enough to Heather.

Heather Brockman Lee is an illustrator and author of books for children, when she isn't being distracted by ghosts coming out of teacups. She has knitted lots of hats and scarves, but didn't know how to knit a ghost until this book. She is the illustrator of The City of Jasmine, When you Love a Book, A Poem Grows Inside You, and more. Heather lives in the shadow of the Colorado foothills with her family and two silly dogs.
