Last week a copy of the 10th issue of Simply Knitting arrived through my door and I finally got to see the pictures and layouts of my two designs in the accompanying Hand Knit Christmas book. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the book which has quite a few nice designs and which sits perfectly on the book shelf.
Inside, the pictures that I had been looking forward to were beautifully staged, and the patterns nicely laid out.
The other reason that I had been looking forward to receiving the issue was so that I could get the patterns uploaded to Ravelry, as I wasn’t entirely certain what the magazine had changed the names of the designs to, but as soon as I had the confirmation Star Stocking and Cool Stocking were entered into the Ravelry database and I could update my projects page with the sample knits created for the magazine.
Your designs are lovely! If I could do colourwork, I would definitely make them.
Woohoo! Congratulations! The stockings are lovely.
Cool Stocking is lovely! I really must learn colourwork…
Gorgeous! So glad the world-at-large is discovering your awesomeness!
Congratulations! These are gorgeous!
