Have you been struggling to finish a knitting project? Can't work out how to alter a pattern? Are you unsure of how to adapt stitches to different projects? A website started by the Isle of Arran Knitting Company may be able to help http://patterns.on-arran.com/page/Your+Queries
Lynn Gray Ross, the knitting expert behind the website responds to all sorts of queries from knitters. Lynn says:
"As the website has grown, we have received a number of customer questions about knitting. People often have the same problems, so we have launched a queries page on our web site where knitters can view the answers to queries and contact us with their own question. Even experienced knitters will find these resources useful".
The Arran Knitting Company website has a host of resources for knitters including
- Where to find yarn, needles and finishing touches for knitting
- Patterns for beginners to learn how to knit
- Information, hints, techniques and stitches to show knitters how to get the most from their yarns.
Lynn has been a knitter since she was five and lives on the Isle of Arran in Southwest Scotland. You can read more about the island on http://patterns.on-arran.com/page/About+Arran and find out the difference between Arran, Aran and Aran Mhor.
The Arran Knitting Company website offers exciting knitting patterns based on traditional island knitwear, each with a contemporary twist. Knitters can also access the resources on the website directly, subscribe to a free knitting newsletter and take part in surveys.
