    Question Knitting pattern request...

    ....does anyone have a knitting pattern for a cushion cover please? I have some spare wool, and would like to make some big cushions to throw onto the sofa.

    Have found some on ebay, but willing to pay postage if anyone could photocopy me one.

    Many thanks

    I want to learn how to knit! Is it easy to learn from online lessons or best to be shown?? There is so much lovely wool and yarns out there these days. Maybe I will look into that - could be a nice winter sport.

    Ooh not sure about that BL, but I guess there must be some good tutorials about, you should have a look into it. I love it, it's so relaxing and from 2 simple stitches (knit and purl) you can make wonders.

    Grab yourself a pair of needles, a cheap ball of wool and give it a go

    Hi Katie! I get such a smile when I see your name here - its so nice to have you back.

    Funnily enough, we had a second hand book sale at work yesterday for charity - and guess what was there, right in the centre of the table? A step by setp knitting instruction book with great photos and projects!!!

    Ask, and ye shall receive!!

    I think I will do just that - grab a few supplys after the hols and have a go. Pennys a little to sparse at the moment!! But definately want to learn - I saw some of the greatest little knit hats in America and wanted them all!! So I must learn to make them!

    Have a great weekend hon!!
