Hi, I would like to knit a picture of Slipknot

Hi, I would like to knit a picture of Slipknot for my great-gran's
cardigan out of wool. Can anyone help me with the process? My great
gran is an absolute mother of metal even though she's 104.........

If you have a picture of whatever it is, exactly the size you want to make
it, then you just copy it onto knitter's graph paper (which is rectangles
of 2:3 proportions instead of squares - you can find it on the net and
download a program to print your own). Then just knit it with one stitch
per rectangle.

If you can't find any knitter's graph paper, it's a bit harder, because
after you copy it onto square graph paper, you have to recopy it adding
1/3 more rows so it comes out looking stretched tall. That takes a little
fiddling but it can be done.

Or you could make an I cord and aplique it on the swaeter in required
knot form , i also think i once saw this pattern ,,,, maybe ?????in
one of the first Interweave knoits i got ?????am not so sure ,, will
look if i can find it ,
