BERNE, Ind. -- DRG, nationally-known publisher of special-interest magazines, books and patterns, announces the release of a new knitting pattern book produced through the company's House of White Birches brand.

Simple Hip Knit Scarves includes 14 easy, everyday knit scarf patterns, with designs for the beginner and patterns for more advanced knitters.

The book includes 48 pages of step-by-step knitting instructions and color photos. It retails for $10.95. The book includes easy knit and purl combinations, with scarves emphasizing rich textures and colors. There are long skinny scarves, chunkie scarves, neck warmers and scarflettes.

Kara Gott Warner is the book's editor. In 1997, she began designing knitted and crocheted garments and accessories, selling on the craft and artisan show circuit. She soon branched off to knitting patterns and kits, and in 2002, established igottknits, an independent knitting pattern collection sold through yarn shops and several online venues.

In 2008, Warner began working for DRG as a freelance knit editor, focusing on books. In 2010, she joined the company as the executive editor for knitting publications, including Creative Knitting magazine.
