Hooray for Knitty
The new edition of Knitty is now online. Their designs are fantastic as usual but I especially like Blaze, I have put it on my looooooong list of things I want to make one day.
I have been a devotee of Knitty ever since I discovered them while trying to find a mitten pattern to make for my Boy, their Broadstreet Mittens fit the bill perfectly (though somehow they seem to have made their way into my winter coat pocket). Since then I've also made Fairway for my dad and ChildHood for my oldest neice.
Their articles are fantastic too I've referenced them for many tricky techniques, they just seem to explain things in such a simple and straightforward way.
In other knitting news Le Tie & Dye grows daily, I'm now up to the armhole shaping on the right front/back piece and speeding along nicely, so much so that I'm beginning to think next project. I've got some lovely Jo Sharp DK wool in my stash that's crying out to be used but I can't decide which pattern to commit it to, there's just too much to choose from, that's the problem with being a pattern junkie.
