Hi I’ve got this one.  Her style of pattern writing takes a little getting used to but it gives you a completely different take on how knit a jumper.  I bought the Knitters Almanac at the same time and they were both definately worth the money.  Now I just trying to find the time to knit a few more of the patterns grin

Sorry I haven’t got that one Janet- but from what I hear her style of instruction is that of a conversation - personally I think it would drive me batty.  OK MORE batty....

Well GG What’s a (new member of SPLOL) to do?

What’s so wrong with proper - typed out - (ok heaven forbid!) PROOF READ - SAMPLE KNITTED - bledinking patterns??  Come on I want an answer… Someone .... Anyone ????  If more proof reading and samples were done then there wouldn’t be so many people tearing their hair out would there? 

So there with big fat knobs on! Ner…

ohh
