let me know too.Stella "SlinkyToy" wrote in message ... Hi y'all. I'm finally doing some spring cleaning (ask me what color the floor is in my computer room?) and expect to have a load of fibery-type stuff to...

This is a general appeal to everyone here who has written me off list in the past. As you know, I had computer problems recently. I lost my address book AND my list of snail mail addressed. Soooooo, those of you who have sent me your snail addresses, could you PLEASE do that again????? Thank you,...

Ah Gemini...I do not know what to say...I am speechless. Somehow...I can...understand you. The house situation must be bad. But the work thing and that property mess you are in...I do not dare to say I'd understand all of it. Only thing I can say is I hope that you can have your work (I have...

Having vented my spleen yesterday on the infuriating search for a nearby wool shop, I thought I'd do my Jekyll and Hyde impersonation and broadcast to the world about what a wonderful shop I found today!! I've gone from being SO annoyed to absolutely thrilled! I took my chap and baby (left them in...

Without knowing what stitches (pattern) you are using, this would be difficult to analyse. Tell us more, and someone will help. Probably not me, as the techie is due here any minute, and I could lose you forever!!! Katherine "Kristie" wrote in...

Here's a link to pix of the Suri Elegance yarn I've been coveting: http://makeashorterlink.com/?O23222DA5 I 'think' I'm going to get one hank of painted. Hugs, Noreen

Hi everyone This is not a fun night - I've put aside my knitting and am busy decluttering the top of my triple dresser in the bedroom. In the pile of stuff was a pile of papers that I've been sorting through, and am almost done. Gawwwwd, I hate housework! It interferes with my craft time. ...

I just want to be sure I knit it right. So....here is the thing. Pattern says like this: "When the length is 21 cm, start to decrease for the head on the left side." I already know, that the right (knitted) side is the side facing me when I start that. But now the point. Am I right, when I do...

I've just treated myself to the Alice Starmore book _Fishermen's Sweaters_, and I'm wondering something about the photographs. I remember reading somewhere, I think in Maggie Righetti's _Knitting in Plain English_, that any knitting designer who mucks about with big scarves round the neck is Hiding...

Has anyone used Lion Brand Microspun yarn? I am thinking about making the Lacy Stole pattern off the Lion Brand website, but didn't know if it was worth making since I saw many mixed reviews. Any thoughts are appreciated. Thanks in advance. laura

I am still not happy with my sampling for the pillowgahn i plan for my Daughter ,, i would like to include some cats shapes, as she owns two who of course move with her to the new flat , I decided already that i will make the inner side of the pocket =pillow , with Regular matching cloth , so when...

Lol, although DH has said 'go-for-it' I just don't know if I can justify the price... and being that I have plenty in my stash, I think I'll 'wait'. My mom is pretty 'frugal' and can usually find things 'cheaper' than I can! Hugs, Noreen who is now packing, but her Cobweb "Orenburg" Wedding ring...

Katherine, I don't know if you're email is working OR if you are getting NG's, but wanted to let you know The MO arrived 08/22, and thank you! Hugs, Noreen Noreen's Knit*che (Knitting, Crocheting, Tatting & BobbinLace are my NICHE in life...) NATA #447 (my family tree is FULL of 'nuts'!)

This is one reason to create a "stash" --- finding wonderful yarns at wonderfully low prices, but not knowing exactly what they're to be used for just yet. As your budget permits, I highly recommend this shopping habit.... "Bookfan" wrote in...

Nope, make that 4 as DH is the same way, doesn't like to part with anything. Hugs, Nora

sorry bout that. I was just kitting one row and purling the other. I thought it would be good practice. Thank you againe. Kristie

On another m-b there is talk of making squares for a peace quilt for the children of Israel. I immediately thought of you. They are wondering where such a quilt could be sent and displayed. Many are asking for what would be appropriate for symbols of peace, maybe putting first names on the...

You must wonder what is going on. Well..my eyedoctor appointment is getting closer. And when I get there...she puts certain type of drops into my eyes. And they make me blind. I can not read or write because I can not see to do either. I afraid it is a must. The red or green light to my driving...

Hi all, Can someone tell me why on some patterns you do the chain three at the end of the row and turn and some say turn then chain three. I'm doing one now that says turn and do the chain three and I'm finding it difficult to crochet into the top of it on the next row back. I tried doing the...
