KnitWit - the ultimate knitting thread

hooray! I look forward to getting knitting supplies from across the seas.

i had to put a value on it. hopefully they won't tax you for it. i only put 10 euros on it. :-)

ooh, help help help!

I do quite a bit of card-making (I've got one of those sizzix die-cutting machines and everything!) and I've just bought these from ebay :

They were really inexpensive - but I'd like to be able to knit card embellishments for baby cards like this myself. Being a total newbie to the knitting world, I'd need a pattern ...... i've tried searching on google to find something, but have failed. Does anyone know where I might find free patterns for knitting tiddly little things like this, to go on greetings cards??

Help/advice appreciated! Thanks :)

have you looked at this site:

Wow, there are some great things on that site!

I need something tiny though, which is knitted on cocktail sticks. I can't find anything on that site, but thanks for the link! I've seen several things there I'd like to try.

yeah it's a good first start. I know I've stuff like you describe (gift embellishments) but can't remember where?

some (now useless) mitt-ens!

Starry, I was just looking around your flickr at your knitting. . .do you still want squares for your blanket?

Cute mittens! I was going to knit Ben a scarf, but we both realized that's it's too late in the season. 60 degree weather is not conducive to scarves.

high today in austin, 81. :( This is all that kept me from wringing the dog's neck for destroying one of my mittens.

Well, you can always knit lightweight lacey scarves with various novelty yarns, but I don't know how well they'd work on boys.
