Two years ago, I wanted to send out an illustrated Christmas card, but had no idea what to do. At the Nth hour, I came up with the idea for a knitting theme, and a day later this was born:

Yes, that's a semi-self portrait. ;)
Then the next year I moved overseas and got married, but I *still* wanted a knitting themed card, so much to my husband's chagrin, I thought this one up:

It's actually a bit less slick than the previous years' card, but I don't care. (Eek! I should have gotten some reference for the hands!) Also notice the difference in hair length. :D
To round out the knitting illustration experience, I give you this:

which was done for CROQ magazine, illustrating an article about knitting for other people and how hard it can be. Hee!
What can you tell about me as a knitter from all of these illustrations? I knit Continental. :D

Thanks a lot for your comment on my retro sock, I will try less stitches and will see. Can´t wait to see yours :)
