Today I finished knitting my first moebius - a scarf and hood combined.. My husband has promised to take some pictures of it tomorrow so I can post them. It has been a peculiar experience, albeit a most enjoyable one. When I cast on and worked the first row I did not think there was any way...

Having got to the toe of the tiny socks I realise that I've forgotten how to graft two rows of stitches! It's been a long time since I did it ... Can anyone help, please? Mary

Boy, I could sure use some knitting classes so I could decipher instructions, but I live in a small town and no classes are available. So, once again, I'm asking for help in this newsgroup. I'm still working on my child's sweater and have made it as far as the sleeves. Here are the...

Tell me please, how does one wear/use a 2-inch wide scarf? Thanks. I'm new here and this is my first post. Marge

The pattern I'm using has the following stitch distribution as I'm working even on the fingers: Needle 1: 20 stitches Needle 2: 21 stitches Needle 3: 16 stitches Needle 4: 16 stitches The first two needles are for the back of the hand, the others for the palm.

I'm doing some destashing to feed my coffee addiction (and to free up some space!). Nothing is "for sale" as such because I'm looking for store credit with my favorite Evil Caffeine Enabler and not cash. http://www.fysh.org/~slinky/pix/lj_swap/index.html

Hi! I am new to this group and boy do I need help! I am trying to do some tiny knitting for the first time for a doll dress. The pattern calls for Peluche fur yarn as well as a spool of Lurex yarn. I am having a terrible time finding this stuff. I can't even seem to find a table that will tell me...

Went to "Stitches" today. I did not know there was that much overpriced, super-soft yarns in the US; much less that they could all be packed into one giant convention hall. Every alpaca in the world must be as bald as a marine recruit this weekend. The sponsor was launching a promoting a new book...

Many of you will remember me rambling on and on about that one and only Aran I've ever done. While at my DIL's yesterday I got her to bring the sweater out so I could take new and better pictures of it. The old one in my Yahoo album is pretty crumby since due to bad lighting or something it...

I'm wondering if anyone can recommend stitch patterns that would be appropriate for diabetic socks. I've scooped some cute Lorna's Laces on Ebay, in this wonderful "Sassy Stripe" that is hot fuschia and tangerine. It'll go great with Mom's hot pink Crocs on her bright red scooter that's waiting...

Howdy folks. The destash is off, for a variety of reasons. My hope was to rehome a *lot* of unused stuff from my stash in a short amount of time so I could flip some Sweet Maria's store credit on a bigger coffee roaster. For various reasons my plan isn't going to work right now (desperation...

Just re-read my Need Hat Pattern post and should have added "snow" now we have 7 inches and could get up to a foot. This is a good day to stay home, knit and watch Star Trek re-runsG Donna

I have put up for auction on ebay.ca some needlework magazines from 1978-1979. They are in excellent condition and still have some great patterns in them. They are a mixture of filet crochet, knitting, crochet, and various other needlework...
