I think from the beginning I figured I could follow the instructions. Working some of EZ's % patterns has given me confidence to do a bit of designing and adjusting "on the fly."

HOW ABOUT YOU?!!
Place this on your Knitsy Blog and link to me.. I’d love to see how many different techniques you’ve done or hope to do and what knitting has meant to you!!
