TanteblaaI love this pattern! I will recommend this to everyone!
The pattern is so clear, even almost-beginner knitters can knit this. It’s a lot of work but it’s fun all the way through!
Every row is different but every single stitch is charted out (in every size!) so you will never feel lost or at least in doubt what to do.
I’ve never done much sock-knitting nor colorwork but these socks turned out GREAT!
This is a beautiful example of a good instruction. It’s both easy ...

Hi and thank you, I'm honored you're reading this :D
I've been knitting as long as I can remember and love anything creative and artistic. I grew up in the world's largest temperate rainforest, where plenty of well-trodden bear trails lead past the best huckleberry picking areas. I'd run for miles down those trails and the ground is so spongy I never needed shoes ;)

I've been knitting as long as I can remember and love anything creative and artistic. I grew up in the world's largest temperate rainforest, where plenty of well-trodden bear trails lead past the best huckleberry picking areas. I'd run for miles down those trails and the ground is so spongy I never needed shoes ;)
Anyway... I have a love for creative design or expression in various genres. Knitting is a given and I'll always knit and play with fibre. I process raw fleeces, dye and spin . I do some knitwear design but want to learn Salish weaving since it's something my family has done for many generations. I'm also an artist that paints landscapes and portraits as well as a classically trained pianist (ex piano teacher),
Guess what? I hate doing accounting. I'm schooled in it and worked in the field for a long time but you know, I just don't like it. Too left-brained for me! I'm good at math though so that's a bonus in delving deeper into designing knits with lace.
I love learning and I love challenging myself. If it's too easy, well I just get bored. I wonder how far these personally quirks will take me? Wherever I end up, I want to enjoy the journey.
