  4. I love your patterns that you come up with...do you figure them out yourself?? or do you find them elsewhere? I haven't tried to make a pattern before but I do like finding patterns that represent my family. I just got my nine year old daughter to start knitting patterns with me...it's a challenge and alot of fun as well.........zette
