Difference between Yarn Over and Yarn Forward by
willi
Can someone please explain the different between these two procedures?
If anyone knows of a site which contains a video of the Yarn Forward
procedure that would help a lot as I understand fully what a Yarn Over
is.
Thanks so much for your help.

SpikeDriver
Hello dear friends,
I just acquired "200 Knitted Blocks" by Jan Eaton.
It is great, I might even get back into the block exchange. It even
gets into intarsia, 2 color knitting, cables, and etc. Meaning, it is

Noble.

Finished Objects by
Alison
Yesterday was a gala day, I finished the socks I'm making for a friend
(for her brother, for Christmas.) He has size 12 feet and I thought
those feet would NEVER end! I was able to get a good length on the
leg also, I did it all in k2 p2 rib so it would stay up (I hope.)
They're in NY Mets...

Hi everyone,
I've added a page to my site. I'm hosting it for a friend since I

I'm looking for the Interweave Knits magazine for the Summer of 2005.
Being new I don't think I would have anything much to trade. I have a little
yarn. :)
If you have one that you would like to part with, how much would you want?
Thanks,

FO by
Georgia
See what happens when you make one pair of socks from one skein (and a
little more) of Noro Silk Garden Lite. I knitted these at the same time, on
two circulars, so if I had to use different yarn for the toes and/or the
heels, at least they'd be symmetrical that way. Little did I know (though...

ISO sock pattern recs for self-striping and variegated sock yarns by
Laura J
Thanks to some evil enabling (by Michelle, I think?) I am now the proud
owner of 8 skeins of self-striping and 2 skeins of variegated sock yarn. I
don't want to make just plain old stockinette socks but I have had bad luck
in the past with finding patterns that go well with this type of yarn. ...

Good Afternoon...
Last week Mom and I were in Michael's and I saw a yarn that really
took my eye. Unfortunately, I didn't think to write down the name of
the yarn, but it was fluffy like Funny, but softer, and it had slubs
through it as well. I thought it would be great to knit up as a
