Purchasing patterns of 2014 designs
New designs remain as knitting kits for about 2 years. I still take these garment designs to shows, and they can still be purchased as knitting kits. Indeed when you buy a pattern you can use that purchase price as a credit against a kit of the same design.
So, the pattern for the Diamond Cable swing $65 - kit $215 - then the pattern credit of $65 = $150 for the yarn and buttons.
www.sigknit.com was designed to sell garments and kits - so to order a pattern you still need to select a colour/ colourway! Confusing I know! You can always email or call the studio 02 9453 9091 - or if you are in Sydney come and try on a few garments - if I am home the studio is open! |

I hope these will be up on the site soon - but just in case here are the colourway ID numbers!
