Introducing Resonator... published in Knitty Deep Fall 2015! Resonator guitars are showpieces of the acoustic world, thanks to their shiny facade and clear tones. These gloves capture the same crispness and flair in their intricate cables. I'm still pinching myself to make sure I'm not just dreaming about having a design published in Knitty! The first hurdle was finding the courage to submit a design for consideration. Amy's class called "Making the Next Monkey" helped immensely. Her class was brimming with useful submission tips and personal encouragement. The next hurdle was waiting for acceptance or rejection of my submission. Time eventually brought a happy response. The final hurdle was tech editing and keeping quiet until publication. Kate 's passion for editing and perfecting patterns improved the design immeasurably. Through the tech editing process, changes were made to the Resonator charts to facilitate grading and accommodate the publishing format. The draft design included thumb gusset charts which were replaced by written instructions in the final version of the pattern. But, since some knitters might find those charts useful, I'm making them available here as a supplement to the Knitty pattern. Just click on the download link below to access the file.
To celebrate my excitement in having this design published in Knitty, I'm offering a 25% discount on my other patterns through September 25, 2015. This discount applies to purchases through my Ravelry shop only. Just use coupon code KNITTYRTG at checkout.
