What’s In The Works
Upcoming on this blog:
1. I am working on a video for Fair Isle knitting Portuguese style, which I do using the knitting pendant I came up with. It works great.
2. Thought up a new technique of knitting, as far as I can tell, and it’s related to entrelac but gives you more options. I will do a page and video in the next couple weeks after some more tests.
3. I may start making and selling my Portuguese knitting pendants with one and two hooks, using sterling j-hooks and composed to be the right weight. Any suggestions? Probably will use quartz crystal beads for the pendant. Sorry, I decided it’s not a good use of my time.

In Brief…
My name is Eric Tischler, I'm 50 and began learning to knit in June of 2009 as a creative outlet as well as to develop my concentration abilities. I'm straight and single. Pretty well balanced left and right brain. I design web sites, work in technical support, have two cats (Max and Lucy), a good sense of humor and a spiritual perspective on life. I have a tendency to invent and innovate, so you may see some new ideas here. I'm working on a new technique for knitting that you may be interested in, so subscribe to my RSS feed and you will hear about it. Thanks for coming to visit!
