I've started yet another project! This one has been in the works for quite a while, and I can finally show it to you now.
Do you know Evelyn over at Project Stash? She and I have been corresponding for a while, and kicking around ideas about how we could work together. And it turns out we had very complimentary goals: she wanted to start designing knitting patterns, and I wanted to get into doing technical editing (of knitting patterns)! A match made in heaven!
Just before I left for Germany, Evelyn let me know that when I got back there would be some patterns in my inbox to edit. In the week following my return, we sent many emails back and forth refining the three patterns she sent me, and on Sunday, the first of these went live on her website. Here's the picture:
Evelyn has also had a redesign of her blog to go along with her patterns; all the graphics were done by her very talented niece! And how lovely is that model? It's her daughter!
I had so much fun editing these patterns for Evelyn, and it confirmed my idea that technical editing is a direction I'd like to go in the future. I do a fair amount of editing for family and friends of scientific and medical papers, and I enjoy it. But knitting patterns! SO much more fun!! And I understand ALL the words!
If you'd like to check out Evelyn's pattern, head on over to her blog. The button in the right sidebar will direct you to a free download of this pattern. And stay tuned for more patterns from Evelyn!
And if you want anything edited, give me a jingle!
