need input on new needles please! by myswendy
I drove myself crazy trying to find my lovely 10-1/2 wooden DPNs for several days to do some I-cords. I finally got the bright(??) idea of cutting my own out of the right-sized dowel (1/4-inch), which I did. I presume it's pine. Anyway, I got 4 quite decent DPNs from the dowel with nice points. I...

Good Sunday to you by Shillelagh
We have a lovely day here on the prairies, almost too warm if you're working out in it. DH & I had to prop up a row of corn that had blown over in the windstorm the other day. I would have left it, but it was lying over the row of carrots. We've been able to start harvesting some of our...

Another wild knitting project by Karlisa
Unfortunately, I cannot read the text at this particular site, but my understanding is that all of the knitted objects were created in an attempt to recreate some elderly lady's apartment! http://www.annereijse.nl/objectfoto%27s.html A knitted walker?? I've seen it all now. :-) enjoy.
