Cathy replied to Philippa Green's discussion 'Hello From the Dreaming Spires'
Hi Phillippa, your story sounds very similar to mine! My gran taught me to knit when I was little and I used to cross stitch too...I'm also in the UK and work for Norfolk County Council....
Happy knitting - I've just returned home…

It had not occurred to me that I could sell the unwanted stuff to cover postage money. Brilliant idea, thanks Pam. I buy on E-bay but have not tried selling - will seek the assistance of younger members of the family.

Julia Dee said… - Cathy, the Teddies are knitted from a pattern in Sandra Polley's book "The Knitted Teddy Bear" which I bought on "Amazon". I have adapted the pattern to make it a little less time consuming but it still needs some work as there are 13 pieces in this particular pattern. There are some lovely bear patterns in the book for bears from 4" to 21" high I can really recommend a copy.

Tess Breakwell said… - Hi Cathy can you tell me if the Kas cuddle is made with straight and circular needles as I am not understanding the pattern. I have never worked with circular. Is the rib on straight needles and then do you change to a circular needle.

(Details of both challenges in the main forum). We're also embarking on our September challenge which is also under "challenges" in the forum.
