Aargh.

Every day since the first day of September, I've been checking and re-checking my e-mail, waiting for the notice to Knitty readers that the fall Knitty was up; you'd think that at some point during that time I might have realized that I NEGLECTED TO INCLUDE THE URL TO THIS SITE in my designer blurb.  So all that web traffic never got directed HERE (or QUI, as we say here in Italia).  See the expression on the kid's face?  Well, compared to how I feel, he's turning mental cartwheels.  I mean, if my top priority was to make a lot of moolah, I would have stuck with veterinary medicine (NOT!!--although that was the mother lode compared to knitwear design)--but it sure would be nice to at least be able to support my expensive yarn habit with my own earnings.

In my blog hopping I happened across your blog from your pattern at Magknits. Both Seaside and Sherwood are great patterns. Sherwood almost -- ALMOST -- makes me wish I had a child to knit for.

I agree with twig, these are both great patterns! Congratulations on the double nod, that is awesome! I will enjoy working these up. : )

Fret not! I found your blog through the magknits pattern and I loved the Sherwood pattern too. I plan to make the seaside gloves because I LOVE THEM! You are very talented and people will find you!

Can't Knitty add your URL to the blurb? Your little model is a cutie.

Sherwood is a brilliant pattern. I love how the cables don't overwhelm the child. Which so often happens in kids Arans.
I think it would be a great adult pattern also.
Beautiful patterns, both of them. As is your Chinese Lace sweater

I think Sherwood is great. I would have put together that you made it a lot earlier if knitty had your link, but I am still very impressed. And I can't wait to buy Chinese lace, so finish it already!

Actually, I have a question about the pattern. This will be the first time I knit from a chart and the first time I do anything but a classic 6 stitch cable so I'm feeling it! Meaning, I'm feeling a bit lost. In your pattern/chart notes you say that each line is knitted twice, yes? If so, and say I was doing the back and front in pieces, would I do the crosses twice as well? Once on the RS and once on the LS? I just purchased the yarn and am looking for the needles but I was trying to figure this out on a small sample with the central 28 stitches (on straight needles) and got stuck.

Thank you for access to an absolutely gorgeous pattern! I just hope I can implement it. I'd like to make it for my now 18 month old for Christmas. He's big so I'm making either the 2 or 4!

I look forward to hearing from you as you get a moment. I apologize if this isnt the correct forum in which to contact you. Please redirect me if necessary.

Thank you!

Regards,
Jen

oops, correction, once on the RS and once on the WS*
