I haven’t moved, so couldn’t use “Changes in Latitude,” but
I am changing an attitude I never thought I would! I’ve steadfastly resisted publishing any
patterns, preferring instead to challenge knitters to make their own
variations. After all, knitting is
hardly difficult, and variations are myriad!
But many, many requests by fellow knitters have modified my notion a bit
– some knitters just need a starting point for those modifications, and others
simply prefer to follow someone else’s lead.
Nothing wrong with either of those, and it’s all good, after all. So…
The cabled cardigan I made a couple of months back has been test
knitted and is now available as a pattern.
To get a copy, you’ll need to talk to Sandy and Robin at Clinch River Yarn Company. The link will take you to the shop’s main
page; phone and email information are on the site. Pattern cost is approximately $6.00 US plus
sales tax.
A second project from my Ravelry page, the Vine Lace
Summer Sweater, is available directly from me.
This is the same top as the Summer Waves Linen Top, except for the lace
pattern. I’ll have it ready before the
weekend is out. To substitute the lace
patterns, you’ll just find a feather and fan pattern in your stitch dictionary
and start knitting!
There’s more fun ahead for the spinners in the group,
too! I have a beautiful local fleece in
hand and we’re going to be doing a two- or three-part session on how to take a
raw fleece to yarn later this month, over the weekend of May 17. Call Clinch River Yarn Company for details and to sign up. This one is going to be a lot of fun!
