Commuter Knitter - Episode 51 - Your Mileage May Vary

I introduce a new segment this week - Your Mileage May Vary - a place to open up some discussion about some hot topics!

Drive

Giraffe

Itty Bitty Toys

Rearview Mirror/Road Maps - choosing yarn and other tips for toy knitting

First Teddy Bear

The Knitted Teddy Bear by Sandra Polley

Teddy Bear for Carlos

Santa Claus

Mrs. Claus

Cuddly Clown

Topsy Turvy Doll

Your Mileage May Vary - a new segment where I delve into some of those issues that always spur discussion among knitters.  Join us over in the Ravelry Group for further discussion about this week's topic.

This week I discuss pattern writing - how detailed should the instructions be?  Line-by-line step-by-step, or more open-ended where it is up to the knitter to fill in the blanks.
