enlarge	I made Debbie's Leisure Arts purse kit to use as my drag-to-and-from-work-on-the-train knitting bag. I used all but a 3" x 3" inch square of the lining material in the kit to make pockets inside, 3 on one side, 4 on the other, (two are crochet hook / pen sized). I'm on my 5th sweater as works in progress in this bag. Love the softness!

enlarge	After my son Clint lost his 28 - year battle with brain tumors in 2004, I switched from commercial knitting to charity knitting. One of the organizations I knit for is "Afghans for Afghans."

Yarn: 1 strand Lopi Bulky (red) and 2 strands Lopi (the other colors) Needles: Size 10 circular and double points
enlarge	My name is Celeste. I am 82 years old and live in Brooklyn, New York. I made this cardigan sweater for my seven-year old grandniece, Brooke. It is knitted in parts: the ribbing first, then the stockinette stitch, the ski people on the sides, then the arms, and so on. I do not have a pattern as everything about knitting a sweater was taught to me at an early age. We did not need patterns back then - we learned by seeing older women knit and they taught me. Knitted by: Celeste Padula (to contact Celeste, please write Rose Davis at simplehomemakerrose@yahoo.com ) Pattern: My own creation. Yarn: 3 skeins acrylic yarn Needles: U. S. #3 and #8
enlarge	I have been practicing my knitting here in the sandbox of southern Iraq, probably the only person here who sends a footlocker full of yarn from one assignment to another. It's the perfect portable craft. This is a picture of Chloe Grace, my only granddaughter and the first sweater I made after a plethora of scarves. It was great fun to play with. Knitted by: Judy Porter [ judi.porter@kbr.com ] Pattern: Debby Ware kit, "The Gumdrop Sweater and Hat" Yarn: Cotton fingering weight yarn Needles: #3
enlarge	I knit this project from your website. Your books inspired me to learn how and I just want you to know I created both items in the pictures. The first of your books, This Matter of Marriage, was given to me by my husband’s grandmother as a hint when we were only dating. Well, as you can see, my matter of marriage is so-far-so-good! Knitted by: Susanne Boehm [ sboehm1977@gmail.com ] Pattern: Baby Blocks, from the novel The Shop On Blossom Street by Debbie Macomber (also available in Knit Along With Debbie Macomber, The Shop on Blossom Street and on the website). Yarn: Caron’s Simply Soft Needles: #8 Circular
