the blue blog archives: get back to where you once belonged

Since magknits.com disappeared, I've received many concerned emails from knitters wanting to know where they'll be able to find the patterns that I published there. It took me a few weeks to piece the patterns together from the wayback machine and get them reformatted, but I am happy to announce that they are now all available (still for free!) in my free patterns section.

Thanks Alison!! I was one of the many concerned who went looking and found the site gone :( I am going to print out the patterns now for safe keeping!!

Oh Alison! Thank you so much! I was hoping, hoping, hoping! I still have plans for "tricot" and "nothing but a t-shirt" but I am one s.l.o.w. knitter, and I hadn't printed them yet, I thought my chance had gone. :-)

Thanks so much! Love the t-shirt patterns and can't wait to start making them.

Thanks for doing this. In case you don't know a number of designers who are on Ravelry also put their patterns up there. Apparently there is a MagKnits archive file that they are trying to get everyone to post to so that all of the patterns are in one place.

I didn't even know that it was you that designed those patterns but thanks so much for bringing them back. I love the techguy socks and had planned to make them a long time ago

Thanks. You should be so proud of these babies.

Thank you so much! I started a Nothing but a T a long time ago, when my skills weren't really up to it. I picked it back up, worked short rows on the shoulders and then realized, "Yikes, I don't have the pattern anymore." I can finally finish it now! Also thank you for blogging so often and well. I cannot tell you how many times you've cheered up my day!
