Schreier. It is a lovely book full with great ideas. I have down loaded
all Iris lessons you can subscribe to and was waiting for her book to come
out. It is worth buying. I bought mine through Amazon.ca, with an order

Felted clogs pattern by
Shillelagh
Okay - I'm cheap - I'm looking for a free pattern. After much Googling, I
can't find anything but a Fibre Trends pattern, and it's not free. I'll
keep looking, but if anyone has a link to a free pattern, I'd be grateful.

Top too short - ideas? by
Alison
I used the long weekend to finish a cotton top (knit in Knit 1 Crochet
2 Cotonade yarn.) i've been working on this for YEARS. I picked up
the neck stitches, joined shoulders, picked up sleeve edgings, and
only have the side seams to sew. It's too short. I measured it and
it is right for the...

thrifty Wellie Boot-sox by
Cher
Hi all,
I seem forever scouring the charity/thrift shops in my never ending search
for yarns either for weaving or knitting. Well I turned up trumps last week
when I spied 2 x 400 grms balls of Aran navy for a mere one UK pound, they
are normally five and a half times that or more for this...

Finished NYCO! by
Sue W
I finally finished my NYCO. The second sleeve seemed to take forever! It is
Guernsey gals from The Best of Knitters Arans and Celtics. I had to adapt it
a bit to suit the gauge of DK instead of worsted or aran. This has inspired
me to set up a photo album and so if you would like to have a look...

Care Instructions for knitted items by
DA[_3_]
Does anyone else put in a ball band from the yarn used to knit the item when
it is a gift? I have found this is much easier than attaching a tag with
care instructions.

OLD MCCALLS NEEDLEWORK & CRAFT MAG. PATTERN FOR CHRISTMAS STOCKING (knitted) by
COLIN KIRKEGAARD DVM,MS
HELP!!!
I am hunting for an old, old McCall pattern which was in a late 40's
McCall's Needlework and Craft magazine. It was reprinted later, I got it,
then we moved, and I haven't seen it. My son took a bride this summer and I
thought this would be a nice way to further welcome her to the...

Today's denim baby jeans report by

Ribbit, ribbit, ribbit.
It appears that instead of slipping the first stitch on each row, I was
slipping the first stitch over the second stitch on each row. *sigh*

Dead 'R' Us")

Expensive knitting needles by
Faberge made jeweled knitting needles for ostentation. Some had the size
color coded by the large solitaire diamonds or rubies or emeralds set on the
end -- but, most of the real hand knitting in those households was done by
craftsmen (and servants) using steel needles. (Turns out that gold,...

I'm Up by
Shillelagh
Here comes my whine:
It's 2:15 a.m. and I can't sleep. I've managed to catch a cold from
somewhere... amazing, considering how often in the day I wash my hands.
I'm sneezing my brains out - soon there will be none left (groan), my head
is congested and feels like cotton balls, and my nose is so...

OK, so it's not really morning here... by
spampot
It's past noon, but we got up late and didn't breakfast until noon.
It's a warm 57 degrees out so I've opened the doors to get the fried
bacon smell out of the house.
It still hurts my arm to knit much, but I've gotten halfway down the
first sleeve of the Oddball sweater and am trying to figure...
