How crafty!

Check out this supercute sweater in the making

I wish I could be that creative. I know I have a million sweaters in the works/plans, but it doesn’t stop me from pondering new creative cute things to do to spice up a sweater. But I can never come up with my own ideas. I see something like this (or like Ribbi Cardi, or Simple Knitted Bodice, or whatever) and I can totally visualize how to do it without a pattern, but I can’t come up with nifty ideas without seeing them first.

    One thing that I learned while I was in Italy was that 99% of patterns come from ideas based on other patterns. You are definately not alone :)
