catspawI know some of you guys knit (![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
perclexed, reedfem, babs_sg1, not looking at you *in particular* ::grin::)
Does anyone know of a good site for knitting patterns? Either freebies or paid-for downloads, I'm not that fussy - except, not vintage, 'cos I'm not anywhere near that tiny ;-) I've taken the notion for knitting again and I have a quantity of cotton chenille (knits as 4-ply) which I quite fancy for a cardigan or a shrug, something along those lines. I just don't have a pattern. I've kind of exhausted all the sites I can think of, and shops that sell patterns are getting kind of like hens' teeth over here. So, can anyone help me out with somewhere new?

Date: 2008-03-07 10:55 pm (UTC)Someone who's had a huge influence on me in knitting and needlepoint is Kaffe Fassett. I love his confidence with colour. But while I'm at the point of going off into flights of fancy with needlepoint, I've never really thought about doing it with knitting. Maybe now's the time to start!
