Hundreds of nominations were received to choose the
five finalists in each category of the 2011 About.com Knitting Readers' Choice Awards. And thousands of votes came in to help decide who has the best wool yarn, cotton yarn and sock yarn, who makes the best knitting needles and what the best knitting book of 2010 was.
This gallery will allow you to learn more about the winners and decide if you agree with the choices of your fellow About.com readers.
