Have you seen this…my jaw hit the ground. This is why I love to knit and why I’m sooooo passionate about it. The possibilities are absolutely endless. If you just take the time, do the research, do the reading, do the math, swatch, make samples, play with the yarn and needles it’s amazing what you [...]
