"I am trying to open the pattern for "Sweetie Baby Knit Pixie" and get the message "Safari cannot find server". Is this my problem, Safari's problem, or Allfree's problem? Is there somewhere else I can find this pattern?"

"The materials list rather clearly states that you need Caron Big Donut OGo, in the quantities listed for each size. all available colours can be found near the bottom of the page here-https//www.yarnspirations.com/082021-blog-ogo == -introducing-caron-big-donut.html"

"In knitting you always follow stitch patterns consecutively, unless the pattern states otherwise. So, row 4 will be row 4, no matter where you are in the sequence. For example if it is a 23 row sequence, row 4 will be worked on rows 4, 8,12, 16, 20, for the repeat of the sequence you will do this as many times as the pattern instructs you to. This is how patterns are followed, not specific to this pattern since you mentioned starting the back and the instructions you are confused about and provided information that is not found in the back bodice instructions as published here. Hope this helps, happy knitting!"

"Thank you for the clarification. On the Caron website it said "Everything you need to make your new project is included in this kit!", so I did not investigate further, not only because I dislike the color combo but also because I am not particularly fond of knitting with acrylics. Usually I work with natural yarns and select color combinations according to my taste and wardrobe. -)"

"Hi I would love to knit this but when I try to open the pattern I get an error code."

The Knitter's Book of Knowledge

Coming from the world of crochet, I found The Knitter's Book of Knowledge to be quite helpful. Author, Debbie Bliss, is one of the world's most respected knitwear designer, so when she came out with this complete guide to essential knitting techniques, I jumped on it.


With information on everything from yarns and needles to tensioning and casting on, from basic stitches to beading and buttonholes, you're sure to learn something new. This book also goes over cabling and entrelac to finishing embellishments; it's the perfect guide for those just learning to knit (like me), as well as experienced knitters.


Included in The Knitter's Book of Knowledge is a variety of techniques for color and texture embellishments, information on popular weights, types and fibers of yarn, how to design your own knits and how to troubleshoot when you've made a mistake, as well as a step-by-step guide to understanding the terminology and language of written patterns.


What I like most about this book is there's a section on understanding knitting; it truly is great for beginners. This section goes over basic knitted fabrics, reading knitting patterns and charted patterns, gauge, substituting yarn, marking rounds, putting in lifelines, picking up stitches and so much more.


This 320-page guide book is a must-have in every knitter's book collection. Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned vet, you're going to love this book.
