PATTERN HELPER

Sometimes read a pattern need more time to count again and again cause the text pattern is too long. This is my idea to make you easier and focus to read a pattern. If you want to move to another row just roll it down. So read a pattern more easier and correct..
Material :
Used Map or big envelope ( or light carton )

KNITTING BOOK



Cover : Knitting book from the edge by Nicky Epstein

I really like this book cause the instruction is very clear with big picture in full colour. You can see 350 alternatif for borders with many styles like fringes, leaves, points, picots, ruffles, lace, etc.. See this book make my idea sprang out with many various projects. But I have only two hand, so I must make it one by one.... Thank you so much for this chalenging book.
