Nobody on LJ seems interested, maybe someone here will be. One hank of Skacel Merino Lace in a nice mallardy-teal, 669/4120. 1375 yd per the ballband. I'm interested in a two-sock hank of yarn such as Opal or Meilenweit cotton, or two hanks of Lorna's sock. The cost of any of these will be close...

You will remember that DH was having a new pacemaker implanted last Friday a.m. So, we showed up at the hospital at 6 a.m., me armed with coffee, the morning paper, two knitting projects and a jacket in case the hospital was chilly (it usually is). DH in surgery, me having drunk the coffee and...

I am destashing. The inventory is 30 plus pair of single point knitting needles ranging from US Size 1 to 13. Some are aluminum, some are plastic and many are wood, some of which I made. Some needles are in new condition, some are gently used, and others are "used but good." There may also be...

I haven't been on this newsgroup site for ages, but now I need some help. At least 8 years ago, I purchased some Chelsea Silk yarn (made by Tahki Imports)and I didn't get enough. So now I am looking for 2 balls (105 yds. each) of teal. Does anyone have some in their stash?

I haven't been on this newsgroup site in ages, but now I need some help. I am looking for 2 balls (105 yds. each) of Chelsea silk yarn in teal. Same old sad tale...I left it to the yarn shop to calculate the amount I needed and they under estimated it. Of course, the yarn is discontinued

Here's where we're at: Russ found my aunt's needles. He is going to have his aunt Geegee look at them first, cuz he knows nothing about them but thinks they're bone, not tortouisshell. When mother confirms, he'll part with them! (I get the wood and bamboo for sure, tho, lol!) Hugs, Noreen --

Three weeks ago I found two perfect, ripe grape tomatoes on one of my vines. Since then, nothing. Just now I found two more that are yellowing up, so they'll be ready in a couple of days if the weather holds. My friends keep asking when I'm going to start flooding them with tomatoes and I keep...

I found the prettiest yarn at the LYS last week, and when my sister came over for dinner the other night she just loved it! It's called SRK Collection- Overture, it's an Italian yarn containing mostly mohair with some metallics in it (and of course the blue color is perfect for sis). Well, I...

I need help! I need a second hank of Skacel Merino color 669 dyelot 4120. It's a mallardy-greenish-blue sort of color. Some might even call it teal. The LYS from which I bought this hank tells me she cannot get two hanks of the same dyelot from the distributor, which I find odd, but I'll take...

Good thoughts requested for my dh, who has to have a new pacemaker implanted tomorrow morning. His present one was implanted ten years ago, with a 7-year guarantee, so it is not a shock. However, he has been feeling under the weather, so went back to his cardio (who has been keeping a tight eye...
