Question: who's knitting?



We would love to hear from you. Please let us know who you are and tell us what you are knitting. We will showcase your projects here on our blog.


The picture is a christening shawl Bernadette knit for our granddaughter. The shawl is knit from a very old knitting pattern using Tivoli cruise 4ply cotton. Bernadette grafted the 16 panels together to make the finished garment. Click here to see more pictures of the shawl.
