Knitting Content

On the knitting front, there has been a lot of peacefully knitting along on current projects. Which is rewarding, but doesn't actually make for riveting photos. Fortunately, my friends have inexplicably declined to delay the birth of their child until I get some things finished (no doubt they're doing it solely to make this blog more interesting). So I've started swatching for a baby blanket. I have my heart set on making something reversible. So when I saw the Tsock Tsarina post a chart for a reversible Flame Chevron pattern, I thought this might be the one.

And...it's very nice, but I don't think it's quite right for this yarn. Here's the back, by the way:

So now I need to figure out where to go from here. I've poked around some online collections of reversible stitches, and have a couple of possibles. I think deciding on a pattern is kind of important to do before knitting the item.

  1. I'd love to know your sources for on-line reversible stitch collections. I have a shelf of stitch dictionaries, but can always use more for when I need just the right one.

  2. You really think you need a pattern chosen to begin knitting? LOL...I try that method, but it doesn't always work!
