Strange that that one is missing.<br /><br />I am enjoying all your book suggestions...well, I take them as suggestions even though you may not think you are making suggestions...although I usually only look at them and continue on in my usual way of knitting.<br /><br />I learned continental knitting in high school from a young German au pair working for our neighbor. I am glad I did as it really is quite fast and also works well with Fair Isle holding several colors.<br /><br />I don't know if I could manage to change...How are you doing it???

My strong preference is for Knitting in the Old Way. Priscilla Gibson-Roberts gave us all a gift with that book.<br /><br />Robin in California<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466385.post-40659607581118723152015-08-22T15:00:18.065+01:002015-08-22T15:00:18.065+01:00I pulled out Gibson-Roberts the other day myself. ...I pulled out Gibson-Roberts the other day myself. It is good. Laid out clearly, easy to use. The nice part of the whole in Archie's sweater is the confirmation that he is using it.
