Web-Letter Issue 203 – Indie Designs in Classic Elite yarns

Independent knitting and crochet design is an explosive field that seems to be gaining influence every day. With the publication of books like Ysolda Teague's Little Red in the City, Maggie Righetti's Sweater Design in Plain English, and Shirley Paden's Knitwear Design Workshop, every crafter has an opportunity to explore the technical intricacies of garment design. If you can dream it, you can create it.

We are constantly thrilled and delighted to see what independent designers can do with our yarn. View these picks to get your creative juices flowing and your needles and hooks in action! Crocheters, don't think we forgot about you! Check out this Web-Letter full of Indie Crochet patterns.
