SnowKnitters unite!
posted by Emma on 02 Jun 2008
Sue H had an excellent idea to display Snowblog readers' knitting projects - and here's hers! And wow, she's a proper knitter who can do patterns and everything. Puts my rather homely bear to shame.
I have no idea what this has to do with publishing - but thank your lucky stars I'm not giving you a blow by blow account of the joys of pregnancy.

What fantastic garments-such talent. Maybe a shoulder bag in one of these patterns to carry all your Snowbooks could be your next project!

Wow - pretty impressive. These pieces look super-complicated to do. Wish I could knit as well as this.

Sue - these are Fair Isle, right? It's a technique I never learned and greatly admire. And jeez, even the sweaters look like they're made with sock yarn! The patience, the time...my hat is off to you.

You have turned those heels beautifully. The first time I knitted a sock I had to watch a video of somone doing it in a mirror. I think we need more Snowbooks Knitting.

Thank you for all your kind comments. I made the jumpers some time ago, and yes, they are proper fair-isle - traditional patterns, and only two colours of wool on any one row. Now I am addicted to sock-knitting. I love the way you knit it all in one go with no seams. The wool is magic wool - computer generated colours in one thread.
