Making A Pattern
I'm going to be making a knitting pattern soon and I was wondering if I could get some advice on making one. I'm making a dishcloth with an image on it (actually it's a Keywork) using the basic knit and purl technique. What is the best way that I can create this image on the dishcloth without making the cloth look like crap? I have a pixelized PDF of the image, unfortunately I can't put it on my blog for some weird reason. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Coheed Crafters on Ravelry.com!
As a knitter I was very surprised that there weren't any Coheed fans that were crafters, so I created a group on Ravelry.com. It's a place for fans to talk about the band and/or storyline and also post/share some of their Coheed related projects. The site mostly caters to knitters, crocheters, spinners, and other fiber arts. So if your interested go to http://www.ravelry.com/groups/coheed-and-cambria-fans
Hope to see some people there!

St. Patrick's Day Fun-For-All!
St. Patrick's Day is upon us and I am having my party the day before. I'll be making a few dishes such as corned beef and cabbage, soda bread, Irish whiskey cake, and I might be making a colcannon torte. I'm excited, all of my friends will be there. We are going to be chilling, playing rock band, drinking, and of course eating.
I've been knitting a lot. For the last few weeks I've been knitting this really cool dishcloth. It's a St. Patrick's Day dishcloth! Actually there's two and I was knitting, one big one and a small one. They are so pretty! I do not want to wash the dishes with them. Also, this is the first time that I made an I-cord, I didn't okay job so I'm proud of myself.
The next knitting venture is a dishcloth, but not just any dishcloth no no no... this one is a Doctor Who dishcloth! A dalek to be precise. I'm kind of scared because I have to knit bobbles, three different types of bobbles. Yup! I've never done that before but I think I can manage. I hope everyone has a good St. Patrick's Day.
