I love these patterns. I have been knitting lace shawls using a very easy pattern on the Knit and Crochet Today web site. I am on my fourth shawl and have one more to go. Friends have claimed most of them ( Isaved one for me). I think I am ready to tackle a little more complex pattern. Which one will be the question.

I am only a beginning knitter but would like to know if the pattern is available in crochet stitches, as I have been crocheting for some 50 years. If it is not, how difficult is it to knit the only knit stitches I know are a combination of knit and purl stitches....Unfortunately I live in the country and there are no places to go to learn . Thanks Gramma

Every time I try to download this ebook, the link takes me to a registration page. I am already logged in so I don't need to register but I did it anyway because I didn't have a choice and, of course, the next page tells me that I am already registered. I never did get to download the ebook.

Dear All Knitters, in regards to the Thordis Icelandic Shawl, if the correct yarn/s and gauge are used, when finished the shawl should be able to be pulled through a lady's wedding ring! PS I am part Icelandic and got this tid-bit information from my mother, who is an avid knitter. We do have cousins over in Iceland. The tradition for a Icelandic gentleman to court a lady, is for him to present her with knitting needles he has crafted himself!

Thanks so much for the Icelandic Shawl pattern. Maybe this will inspire me to complete the shawl for which I purchased yarn on my first trip to Iceland. It was a toss up between buying a shawl already knitted and yarn to attempt to make my own - I chose the latter along with a book of patterns (written in Icelandic). This has been a little over four years ago and I have never attempted the follow the charts in the book but with the written instructions as a back up I am anxious to get started. Thanks again!

Despite the incredibly frustrating feedback loop that denies access to these patterns to the very people to whom they were offered, there is a way. Log in to KnittingDaily, then click on the Free Patterns button.

I, too, am being redirected to the registration page. I use firefox, but have not had this problem before.

Add my name to the Frustrated list. This happened now, with the shawl patterns, and Tuesday, with the 5 e-books. I'm on Firefox+Ubuntu and would have to track down a Windows pc to use IE.

Please fix it so I don't have to re-register to get my patterns! Firefox has been around a long time so the website has had awhile to get up to date and multibrowser compatible!
