Knitting


double lattice swatch/washcloth2, originally uploaded by fuzzyjay.

I have been enjoying Ravelry, a well-equipped and well-populated knitting site. I have posted a few of my knitting designs there, and people have started to knit them... It's quite gratifying.

There's a guy in Louisiana who finished his version of the scarf I'm knitting for David (which I'm about half-done with), and has gone on to teach a class in it!

There's a woman in Berlin who finished a scarf from my pattern. The colors she used, not so much. But it's fun to see my ideas out there.

Yeah, that colorway she chose just kinda, oh I dunno, sucks. :) At the very least it's not my tastes, but as long as she or whoever she made it for likes it, that's all that matters. It also looks like she used larger needles to make it lacier. Or she just knits very loosely. But I'm glad your patterns are starting to get noticed.

I think the colors are fun on the scarf made by the lady in Berlin!

You know, my mom and grandmother taught me to knit and crochet when I was kid, but I've never done any of it as an adult. I should pick it up again.
