I must let you know how much I adore your website! Such gorgeous designs. Thank you from the bottom of my heart! I too love crochet, knitting,
embroidery, gardening and dogs. You are a kindred spirit. Thank you again. Renea, Indianapolis, Indiana, USA |
Jessica-
I just wanted to say thank you for coming up with a Nordic pattern that saved me from ripping out a hat I started. I guess counting when my
kids are talking to me just doesn't work...lol. I have received many nice compliments on the hat with your pattern in it. Here is the finished
hat. You can use the photos if you want no problem! take care and have a great day, I love your site! Sincerely, Lisa Carroll in Alaska

Hi Jessica,
Your website is incredible and I appreciate the patterns and colour charts tremendously. Thanks again, Conor from Brussel |
Hello Jessica,
Thank you so very much for all of your work assembling the information and patterns on your website. The amount of information is astounding.
Here's a photo/link to a ravelry page with a set of fingerless gloves, my first stranded color work and also first hand covering. I used one
of the patterns from your site for the color work. They are now happily at home on the hands of my friend Armen, keeping his hands toasty and
fingers free.

I have also just learned about Selbuvotter, and since I now live in Seattle, can go look at a very large collection of mittens and gloves at
the Nordic Heritage Museum. Terry Shea wrote a book recently chronicling the history of Selbuvotter patterns, recreating many of these
traditional black and white gorgeous designs.
Yummy! Cheers, Robin (my mother's maiden name is Prinsen, from the Netherlands)

Hi Jessica
Thanks for sharing all the amazing info on your website. I'm relatively new to stranded knitting and you have so many wonderful resources to
share.
You said on your site you don't want people to sell your patterns (fair enough!). I made a hat that uses one of your cute little charts - the
elephants - and was wondering if it was ok with you if I wrote up the hat pattern for free for other people to use as well? I'm not a
professional knitwear designer, I've just written patterns for a few of the things I've made to share with other people, as a thankyou for all
the free resources I've used while learning to knit over the last 5 years. The internet has been such a great learning tool for someone like
me who doesn't know many people who knit in the real world. I've attached a few pics of the little hat - hope your spam filter doesn't eat
them :) kind regards Jude
beautiful !!! |
Hello Jessica!
Whenever I need inspiration for my next project, I always come to your website. I am very grateful that there is such a place to access free patterns and ideas and new methods. I want to make every project, but there is never enough time. I have attached a photo of myself wearing a tunic which I made a few years ago with help from your postings. The tunic
went to the South Pacific from Central Canada without me when I loaned it to a friend for her vacation cruise. I get many complements and it is a conversation piece when people ask me how I made it. Thanks again for your wonderful site. Isabel Sutton |

Like so many others before me I only write to say THANK YOU! I have been searching for an acceptable Fair Isle pattern to make Christmas stockings. Somehow I stumbled on your site and I found 10 BEAUTIFUL ones so far! I only need to make 2 stockings! Thank you for sharing! Jessica , Michigan-USA |
Dear Mrs. Tromp,
This is not a question, only a thank you. I have just begun to explore your website. What an astonishing gift for knitters (and crocheters - something I have not yet learned)!
It is such a great pleasure to wander through your pages to discover the many great and unexpected treasures. For example, I have just discovered Japanese lace and cable patterns and own one Japanese stitch pattern book.
Many of these are undeciphered mysteries. They were also undecipherable, until I found your wonderful lessons.
And now, astonishingly I have become psychic! I can see my future.
It is all so clear. I can see that I have many happy hours ahead of me, playing among your pages!
Thank you again. Sincerely, Linda, Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada |
Thank you so much for the free use of your website! You have some
amazing designs on there. I'm sending you a picture of a headband that I
made for my 9 year old daughter using a chart from your website. I used
the fair isle norse 81 chart. I'm calling it the Winter Blues Headband.
Thank you! Thank you! Rebecca, Illinois, USA

Hello!
Your web-site is absolutely fantastic! Thank you for that!
I used one of your charts for a slipover which I knitted for my little
niece.
The chart is two-flower detail of a bigger chart from the design
patterns (I hope you understand my bad English...).
Photo of the
slipover comes with this e-mail as an attachment. Thanks again!
Best wishes, Hanna Kourula, Finland |

Hi, Jessica-

daughter's sweater - she had a "Hello Kitty" birthday...Best to you -
and thank you again! Diane Pennsylvania, US
