Lynda Illingsworth Designs

Knitting is my obsession - lace knitting and
knitted-lace, Fair Isle knitting and
Norwegian knitting are my favourites.
Shawls and scarves, sweaters and jackets
to keep out the cold. I knit both by hand
and machine but hand-knitting is my first
love.

I was taught to knit, at the age of four, by
my maternal grandmother who seemed
quite surprised to learn that I had not
started to knit by that age (obviously
being obsessed with knitting seems to run
in the family!)
