There’s a link in the post right under the video.
love this website, i am a novice knitter and some patterns look daunting to me ! but with your help, hope to soon be able to knit with some of these gorgeous yarns.
Johnny, I have used this yarn and with 9 sts. I get diagonal rows of the flowers. I knit right up to the “flower” and
then go to just after the flower for the next stitch….makes a long, lovely scarf. One of my daughters can’t stand
to have scarves on her neck so loops it around so it hangs below! Looks great…Thanks for your NSAD …. the
best library to have on file!!! Your instructions are perfect and not hurried like most!!
Thanks so much and God bless you for being a great teacher!!!
Love ya teacher!!
