Knitting Web Sites
Zinio - Is a great site to download magazines to your iPad or computer. They have lots of knitting and beading magazines.
EZ's Better Bind Off by Purlbee - this is a great bind off that makes your b/o edge look the same as your cast on edge! EZ certainly knew what she was doing!
Interweave has a great tutorial for converting a stitch pattern so you can work in the round.
Polka Dot Cottage gives great instructions on how to make polymer buttons for all your knitting and beading projects!
Yarns in the Farm has really unique patterns including the really popular Floffy Skirt.
I hope you enjoy these helpful links and by all means if you have a link you think may be helpful to other knitters please post it!
Enjoy & Happy Knitting!!

Congrats on your first year. I enjoyed the links you posted. There may be some polamer buttons in my future. See you soon. Cathie
Just found your blog and love your Loopy Snecklace. Thank you, Mary
Just browsing the knitting sites and came across your loopy snecklace pattern and was intrigued. I am fairly new to knitting even though most would consider me an "old lady".
Your blog has been added to my "must read" blog list. Thank you!
Lots in common: 42 years of marriage, love to cook and knit like it is my job. Searching for loopy scarf I made before but couldn't remember led me to your site. And am so glad.
My LYS is Knitting Temptations with a great web site and blog. My local hero is Knitpurlhunter with lots of web exposure. Hope you get acquainted with both of them.
Did you really meet Paula Deen?
Lynn looks like you are having the time of your life. Enjoy. Love the Loppy!
Thanks for ALL of the Links! And... Happy ANNIVERSARY TO YOU!

Hi Lynn,

Best,

Lynn, just stumbled upon your site while recovering from a traumatic incident that left me homebound. I love your loopy scarf, have made one very similar, but would love to see your technique. I will send an email.
Keep up the blog! I will be back!
