Test knitters (or at least knitting-pattern-readers) wanted! As the patterns are still at the testing stage, there may be errors - your help finding them, or pointing out any unclear directions, would be much appreciated! When the patterns are published, they will be removed from this site and be available for purchase at http://christaknits.com and at Three Bags Full and Urban Yarns in Vancouver.
