Good to hear you're knitting again. Your poncho looks lovely. Like you, I learned when I was a child, but then put the needles down and didn't pick them up again for 30+ years. I've been knitting again for about 10 years now and literally can't stop. I love it. Hope it all goes well for you and your cardigans knit up well.
I, too, have just started knitting again after 40 years. I am amazed by all of the resources that are now available online. Coincidentally, I started with Drops Nepal yarn and one of their fee sweater patterns. I also have that light, which I bought for quilting, but seem to use for everything. Good luck & enjoy!
It's great to have the online resources, isn't it? I never thought about using the light for other things but great idea! Maybe its a thing to pick up the needles again after so long? 😊 Thanks for commenting. cheers, Debra
Hi, I'm a knitter from Sweden. I learned how to knit in school about 8 years old (but I kind of had to figure it out by myself because I'm left handed). I knitted little things randomly like barbie attires. But then I didn't knit until I was about 30 and now been knitting actively for 10 years. My biggest project is on the needles a wool coat the houndstooth jacket an all over colour work in drops Nepal. I'm really impressed that your knitting looks so nice. Looking forward to se your progress.
That is awesome! I don't think I would ever tackle a coat, well done. My daughter is a lefty and I could never teach her how to knit as it is so different with everything reversed. Thanks for watching. cheers, Debra
Lovely choice of yarn there! I like drops Alaska for cardigans and drops Nord is my favourite for socks. Wool Warehouse does international shipping so maybe that is a way that you can get drops yarn to Australia. I think Lindehobby may also ship internationally.
Thank you. I think WW may do delivery to Australia, but for now I have enough to last a while. 😊 I have not heard of Lindyhobby. Shall have to check them out.
