Knitting for Grown Ups.

One of the things I decided to do this year was to extend my "knitting" repertoire beyond garter stitch blankets and to learn to read a pattern without running to my Mummy every time I couldn't fathom the instructions. I am, after all, quite a big girl these days and technically capable of thinking for myself.

I have achieved both my aims. So far though I have yet to dip my toe in the deep waters of "useful, wearable garments"...no instead I have knitted what has taken my fancy which has resulted in this fellow who I've shown before- Percy Pendragon, Gargoyle Esq


And now this- the pattern is here for anyone overwhelmed by the urge to create their own! http://www.halloweenmania.co.uk/halloween-dishcloth-knitting-patterns.php
