“Really, all you need to become a good knitter are wool, needles, hands, and slightly below-average intelligence. Of course superior intelligence, such as yours and mine, is an advantage.”
― Elizabeth Zimmermann
I have found this beautiful pattern on this other bloggers blog. It was just beautiful and she designed it herself! Highly encourage you to try it. It's called the Bobbles and Leaves Beret which can be found here.
Just went to the Fiber Festival in Hemlock, super fun. I got some alpaca yarn, super soft. I also got some amazingly super soft sheep wool. Next year I'll blog about the details in case you want to go because it is a fiber heaven and there are also classes if you want to learn something new.
I've started a Pinterest account not too long ago so I've decided to start a section titled KnitLove just like my blog here. So if you wanna check out the cool stuff I've pinned you can find it here.
Since I've going back to school I've decided to post some knitting patterns so you can knit some fun stuff for yourself, kids, or grand kids for school. There's the Alien Desk Worm Pencil Holder (shown), Stash-Busting Ear Muffs, Harry Potter and Draco dolls, and a Striped Mobile Phone Case. They can all be found here .
I've decided I want to knit a sweater so I was searching and found the Backwards Upside-Down Sweater which can be found here. It's leveled at Intermediate and you can wear it four different ways. Have fun!
