One Great Knitter

I am a bit behind with the blog week due to some technical difficulties but I am back on track now (with the help of my daughter). As you will have read from my previous entries, I have just got back into knitting again after many years in the wilderness. I have recently found out about Kim Hargreaves and am a big fan. I have always liked a lot of Rowan patterns but have never attempted them because I was a bit wary of them I think. There always seemed to be lots of charts involved. I think that Kim Hargreaves' patterns seem a lot more accessible and less scary! I have nearly finished my first garment and, so far, it has gone without a hitch.

Over the last days I have been reading so many other blogs and finding lots of other designers and knitters mentioned. I am looking forward to finding them and maybe adding more to my wishlist of knitting.

  1. I've read quite a few people mention Kim Hargreaves this week. Her designs really are lovely, so it's good to hear that the patterns aren't too scary! Your blog layout is lovely by the way. :)
