Something about me and my knitting

This is my first post, and this blog would be mainly about my hobby: knitting!

Well, some random stuff might creep in here now and then, let's wait and see.

Like most other knitters, I picked up needles when I was little, learned how to knit, turned away, did not come back until I started working. At first it was mainly for de-stressing and gift making, then it became a pleasure.

I started writing patterns quite recently, for sometimes there can be an urge to share with other knitters something beautiful to me. My designs are usually based on a theme, be it an ancient poem, a delicate flower, a fractal, or simply a pretty yarn. I always try to make it simple, comfortable, and elegant, but the results may vary...

Let's begin,

Iris

YOU GO IRIS!

I'm fascinated by the idea of knitting blogs-- my knitting is not so exciting, so it's a challenge to write about it.

but I'm glad you're doing it.

and I want the white gloves with the blue stripes AND the knowhow to construct them.

Hi Iris

I only started my blog a couple of weeks ago so we are almost blog twins! I love your work - you are clearly a lot more prolific than me. I must remember to pop by every now and then to see how my 'twin' is doing.
