Hi, everyone! My pc crashed Fri night. I've been in withdrawal FOREVER! It's so good to be back. Is it my faulty memory, or has there been a rash of pc failures on this group lately? -- Star love, Norma

Karen writes What needlecraft books do you have on your shelf that you couldn't be without? Would it be a book of patterns and designs? Techniques? General reference? 'The Knitter's Handbook' by Montse Stanley - invaluable!! 'The Knitting Goddess' by Deborah...

Hi Everyone, I just have to say that this is a great bunch of people, and I'm glad I stopped lurking. I am looking for a pattern for an antique shawl (c. 1899), that was crocheted in a circle. Not lace; above-elbow-length, shell-stitch pattern. TIA Kathryn in CT where it's getting very cool at...

LOL- so true! Thanks for this. Regards Sarah Bridal showers, wedding, baby showers, Mother's Day, and other Mandatory Gift Occasions would not even EXIST if men, as is alleged, really ran the world. Women observe ALL these occasions, and MORE. My wife will buy gifts for NO REASON. She'll...

....actually much better. I have tried not to laugh too much...you see, if I laugh from the bottom of my heart, I may run out of air. Sounds bad and feels even worse. So I try to hold the laugh down. But there is books I can not help with...I mean in those books...there are places I must laugh for....

Hi Karen, Happy birthday today and may you have many, many more. Hugs, Nora

The newer monitors, with the flat screens, are just so much easier on the eyes. I got mine last year for a wedding anniversary present! DH asked me what I wanted, said he was out of ideas but thought I deserved some more jewelry. I said "No, no, I wanna flatscreen" He insisted on getting the...

OK, Do I win? The fitted Nordic sweater that I knit for my mother when I was in college, (from Nomi's Knits), 20 years ago when I was in college, and she weighed 35 lbs. less - I still have to sew the front binding, sew the buttonholes and the buttons on it. Then again, maybe I'll just frog it...
