Colinette order

I'm caving in & joining the knitting craze.

Would anyone would like to join in with a Colinette order? Let me know here (comments are screened, in case it's for a present).

ETA: Paypal works, as does cash if I'm likely to see you. Cheques get forgotten about. I'll order on Friday 9th - a week tomorrow.

[livejournal.com profile] miss_newham has recently learned to knit on some lumpy skinny horrible yarn with no stretch to it and after learning on that, she can knit anything.

Learning to knit with something you like is the best thing ever.

I'd have thought stretch would confuse matters? Tension was one of my biggest problems at the best of times.

Yes. I need things I want, in yarn I like. I need to push toe 1970s/80s Woman's Own patterns out of my head & have fun :)

See, that's the worry! Some of those are similar to Colnette's patterns (the big cardies with fuzzy edges) and *how* do you know in advance whether it'll look great or awful?
