Adventures in Knitting

I amaze myself. I never used to like knitting. Suddenly I'm unraveling old sweaters to make into felted wool purses, buying knitting needles and visiting all the likely stores in Prince George to find out what is available. I would like to knit with wool or maybe cotton, this means my supply of yarn is limited. I'm contemplating making a cardigan. Since my knitting skills are a combination of basic stitches and making it up, most of the patterns I looked at I had to reject. The enormity of the learning curve I would have to take to first interpret them and second do the actual knitting would have been to huge. I found a very easy pattern for a cardigan on the Mango Moon site. The only problem is finding kid mohair. I had almost decided to make do and just knit it up with wool suitable for the size of needles and stitch gauge recommended in the pattern. I was horrified when I calculated the cost. If I was going to spend so much time and money making make this cardigan I want it to be made out of something I like not something I'm just making do with. On line I found this page of results for my search for, "Canadian knitting supplies". I'm going to be busy for a long time.
