THE KNITTY LEVEL OF DIFFICULTY INDEX [Kind of like a menu. But not really.]

Relaxing, not mentally taxing.
Knitting as therapy.


Tired of scarves? Ready for something more challenging? Try these.
Fun things with zing. A twist, even.


A little something for the seasoned knitter.
Daring but not exhausting.


Suitable for those with a lot of experience. Or patience. Or both.
These babies have teeth.
