April Artist of the Month

Edie Nelson has some of her newest creations on display this month. One piece is a vest knitted in a bulky yarn and featuring a new stitch pattern which creates alternating blocks and bands of pattern and is embellished with antique buttons which compliment the knit pattern.

Also on display will be a child's sweater using 'Mirage', a multicolored yarn that we carry in the co-op and, also, another sweater featuring a new pattern called 'Descending Squares' which Edie has recently developed and will also feature no seams.

She is in the process of writing the pattern for the 'Descending Squares' sweater which will soon join other patterns which she has written and are offered for sale in the Co-op.

Edie is a prolific knitter who is inspired by the yarn and thinking about how best to highlight that yarn's potential with the interesting stitch combinations and she is always ready to advance the love of creative knitting by helping others do the same.
