Knitting Patterns!

Question by Awkward Silence: Where can I find ideas to improve my wardrobe?
I am looking to improve my wardrobe with my knitting and sewing skills. What are some websites, magazines, books, etc. that I could look at to give me some ideas? The ideas don’t have to be patterns, I can usually come up with a pattern myself, nor do they have to be confined strictly to things I can make, as I am willing to buy a few items of clothing to make my wardrobe even better. I just want to create a more fashionable, creative, and head turning wardrobe that will make me look and feel better than plain old jeans and a t-shirt.

Question by Taylieiskawaii: How to be a teen interested in art?
Hi, I will be taking art for my Second year this fall. I am very creative and have decent drawing skills. I do Alot of soft sculptors ( google stuffie or Jenny Harda to get what im talking about) and although I don;t seriously want to be an artist or have an art career I would love to learn more about art. I just read a little bit of the wikipedia page explaining the art theory. I would love to know some things I should google, books I should read, websites, key terms or phrases and anything else that would help me appreciate art better. And my mom promises to take me to art museum soon. I also do theater/writing/sewing/knitting/ and read lots of fashion magazines ( real ones like Elle and Vogue). I had a sketchbook but I lost it.
