Knitster's Notebook

By Nancy Bush

Knitster's Notebook was the title of the column I wrote for Knitter's Magazine. It is a name I chose after reading Richard Rutt's History of Hand knitting, where he talks about 'knitsters' and their labors. I liked it a lot, it seemed appropriate, and so it is a title that shall travel with me, it seems, as I continue to write and to share my thoughts about knitting.

I am happy to offer two patterns, ready to knit, in Knitster's Notebook . The Little Arrowhead Lace Socks call for our Happy Trails yarn or you can use any sport weight sock yarn. The Truly Tasha's Shawl calls for a heavy worsted weight yarn, (I used Harrisville Highland Tweed) knitted tightly. You can use any yarn of your own choice for the shawl as the pattern is easily adaptable to other yarns. Click on titles for patterns instructions.
