She is very clever - I see some of her work on Face Book.

Are they machine knitted?

No LLL they're all handknitted. She hasn't got a knitting machine.

I thought they were handknitted, as I thought that was what she enjoyed, but they are soooooo neat, and the tension looks great. A very clever girl.

They wouldn't look like that if I tried to do them.

Thank you all for your kind comments. As I've posted before Amy is trying to overcome OCD which caused her to come home from University after her first year. For many months she was unable to even leave her home but she was determined not to be tarred with the "lazy useless teenager" brush so she took up craft and designer knitting whilst continuing with her degree course through the Open University.

So far so good much progress has been made may it continue. :please:

You just wish you could take all the bad things out of their lives, don't you?

As a knit myself, I know how difficult it is to produce such neat a finish and perfect likeness. Very clever.
