Now that the knitting wiki is online it obviously needs more articles.

All of us have a favourite cast on, cast off, stitch pattern, sock toe that we can write up instructions for, a hat pattern that we've written (or any number of things related to knitting) that we could write an article on.

It could be as simple as the directions for knitting stockinette stitch, a list of knitting abbreviations (in any language), or as complex as a pattern for a shetland lace shawl. (In fact, we even need an article saying what shetland lace shawls are!)

So how about it guys? If we can get 50 or more articles into the knitting wiki then people will start hanging around long enough to think about writing more. I've written very comprehensive "how to add an article (knitting pattern, stitch pattern, yarn review)" instructions but if you have any trouble you could always send me your article in doc format and I could add it for you & list you as the writer within the article.

Don't know about the knitting wiki? It's a community run knitting encyclopedia, but like all community projects it needs a little TLC from the community it's for in order to flourish.
