the five year sweater

So I have learned that when you start something you should really try hard to finish why????? because you tension changes, the yarn goes out of stock and things happen along the way like........... the project gets lost for a half year

Silly Catherine

So this is Catherine Clark the owner of Brooklyn General and all around funny gal. I've known her for hummmm well Five years( gosh that long) she gave me the one and only knitting store job that I liked and that includes working at School Products in the middle of Manhattan and at Knitting Hands when it was called knitting hands catherine is wearing the mittens that heather gave her today

why i love Rowan patterns

    I have knit a lot of patterns and out   of all of them I love the rowan ones the most . The reason is because it always looks like the picture not unlike this coat which was a rebecca pattern. This project was more about getting it done than how it finally looked. The arms  are too long and the upper body is too big and it makes me bum look a wee bit big . In closing so far.....the Rowan ones do not or maybe it's just me bum.
