I originally posted it in Natter, but was pointed this way. In Natter there were postings that the sweater designs tend to be blocky ... there was mention of someone else who does better garment designs. Also of a book called "Sweater Quest" by a woman who was determined to knit a Starmore Fair Isle sweater; I found it amusing, the knitters, less so.

Oh no, I found the book amusing - but it seemed like great effort for a poor result. (Although she made friends with the ladies from Mason-Dixon Knitting which is kind of an excellent result.)

Oh, I also meant to say, Toddson, you totally can post crafty stuff in Natter additionally.
