Socks progress by C. Mathews
Well, I am sure that some of you more experienced knitters will have a chuckle over my progress report, but I am not laughing. :-( I am using the yarn that makes its own pattern. The directions said to use size 2 or 3 dpns. I only had # 3 so I used them. Now I find that the sock is too baggy,...

Needle/Hook Size by Kathryn
Hi all! I was wondering if it REALLY matters what size needles you knit with or what size hook you crochet with. I see that each skein of yarn tells what size to use, but I assume they're just guidelines. Of course you probably have to use the size specified if you're following a pattern, but...

Sweaters by Karen in MN

Woolen vs. Worsted by Slinky
Ranee was bang-on in her description of woolen and worsted yarns, as far as she went. Worsted yarns are spun from wool that has been combed into a long thin strand. All of the wool fibers in the strand point in the same direction; think about filling a soda straw with toothpicks - all...

Baby pattern by Christine and Jill
I have asked at my LYS, but they cannot locate a copy of Elizabeth Zimmerman's Baby Surprise Jacket. I imagine it may be out of print. Is this pattern available on the internet? Also, one of my colleagues will have a cesarean section this week, a month before her due date. I need a quick baby...

6X6 received by Janise Ross
I am very happy to report that I received some wonderful squares in the mail from Liz1958 today! Thanks, Liz. Ironically, we mailed our squares on the same day (1/15), but mine made it to England 1 day quicker than Liz's took to get to NY. The wait was worth it. Janise

Hello! I'm usually a lurker here, but I'm looking for a yarn that is similar in size/type to Rowan Big Wool. I have two of the Big books from Rowan and want to test out the pattern before doing it in the big wool. Anyone know if there is a less expensive yarn that I can check out first? Any...

Gauge by Atara
If anyone is teaching someone how to knit, and is explaining gauge and its importance in the world, I can provide you with a graphical example of WHY gauge is so important. http://www.50degreesnorth.com/garden/archives/000032.html May others learn from my mistakes. ^.^ --

"ribbon" scarf by Shirley Luton
Hi all, A while (like a year or so ;) ) I bought a skein of 1/8" thick flat "yarn" (it's really more like ribbon). It's a really pretty, variegated blue/green - looks kind of ocean-like. Anyway, I thought I'd make a scarf. Finally did it - just a plain garter stitch because I thought the...
