Knitting-related notes and news and stuff…

In an attempt to liven up the ravelry group a bit, I’m trying to organize some kind of leethal knit-a-long over there… It’ll probably be a Buttonhead knit-a-long with encouraged Game Knitting on the hat!  I think the buttonhead design is the perfect kind of pattern to game knit on, with its simplicity and customContinue reading “Knitting-related notes and news and stuff…”
