Plus-Size Knitting

I've been knitting now for a little over three years. One of my biggest frustrations is that most patterns are written for model-thin people. NOT COOL!

If you look at a crowd of people, you'll soon realize that most of us are NOT thin. So, why hasn't the pattern-making public noticed this?

And another thing....you'd think the yarn stores would WANT to have plus-size patterns. Think of how much more yarn they would sell! (Plus size patterns need more yarn to complete the project.) Hello!!!!

Since I spend so much time searching for plus-size knitting patterns, I decided that maybe I should put what I find in one spot. For my own convenience, and for the rest of you plus-size knitwear lovers.

So, without further ado, let's get cracking......

If you know of a knitting pattern (free or not) for plus-sizes, please post a comment.

Thanks!
