 Sixteen years ago, I published my first ever blogpost, entitled "BYOB – Bring Your Own Bag" following closely on the heels on my first published pattern. Then over the intervening years, I went on to publish more than 200 other blogposts and over 60 patterns & E-books – phew! Looking back through the blogposts now, I can see some have clearly stood the test of time and include valuable knitting notes and information. However, others could perhaps be classified more as "of the moment". Fun and newsy at the time, but perhaps not worth keeping long-term. So with our forthcoming move to the UK and a change of website host, I decided that this would be the perfect opportunity to take stock... review them all, amalgamate some & republish others. So please welcome my new "Knitting Notes" section! You will see quick links to some of the more popular posts on the right of this page, and an Index with summaries and links to all the Knitting Notes here. Please let me know if I have missed any of your favourite posts from my back catalogue and I will make sure to add them back in. With many thanks to you all for 16 years of reading!
