WOW. That sounds way cool, but I think I'll experiment w/toes for a while first (am knitting DH a pair of wool-hemp mixture socks). I got several EZ books for my bday, will look up socks when I have a minute. SlinkyToy wrote: You can do better than simple right- and left-toe construction - you...

Well, I did a hat with this pattern http://www.headhuggers.org/patterns/cpatt01.htm and I think it turned out fairly decent, ofr my first try.

A guild friend phoned me yesterday and asked if I was interested in helping out with a felting day for 6 kids, who where staying at her house for a couple of days. We had a great time. I found all the little remnants of fleece, and bits of coloured stuff as well. Got little freezer plasitc...

Hi everyone, I'm new :) Nice to meet you all. I have a query, if you don't mind me asking. I'm looking for a ten ply pattern (australian ten ply) on the net, but I think I've found out that 10 ply might not be known as such in other countries. Is there a website/special place I can go to find...

The only way I could imagine that I'd crochet ever is the Tunisian crochet. What's the worry? With ordinary hook I can make only small items...Knitting needle is not good for that work...I should use it 'wrong way', if you get the idea. But maybe that dream will happen some day...I mean maybe I...

I've spent much of the evening going through the old deja/google archives and have seen nothing untoward about Gemini. There is also nothing about Gemini (Ruth) asking for money or giving a hard luck story to get money from people. Sorry Eleanore, for whatever reason you have for pulling this...
