Red Heart Super Saver Yarn by [email protected]
Hi Everyone, Since Wooly and Noreen were talking about yarn and the weight, I thought I would let you know what is happening with the Red Heart Super Saver, it's being downsized too. A couple weeks ago I was at Walmarts and picked up a skein of blueberry pie and one of plum pudding. I thought the...

Wearable cotton yarn? by Jenn Vanderslice
Good Morning everyone, I'm interesting in finding a cotton yarn (worsted weight) that won't thin like Sugar n Cream or Kitchen Cotton. I'd be happy with a yarn that has some polyester or nylon in it to prevent shrinking. Does such a yarn exist? I'm wanting to make throw pillows that are soft...

I am SO ticked off at DHL, the USPS and the VitaminShoppe! I placed an order at the Vitamin shoppe last monday, the 26th, early in the day, which 'they' claim for one that I placed on the 27th. They FINALLY acknowledged my order on the 29th, stating that it had been shipped on the 28th. They gave...

Things I've learned... by Slinky
General lessons: Check your gauge often and at many locations on the work. When I was doing the pattern overhaul I failed to account for the fact that a stranded fabric made with sport-weight yarn would be thicker than if I used worsted-weight and made an unstranded fabric. Fortunately my gauge...

About the Not Really 6 x 6's by Kira Dirlik
Since this topic has come up in another thread, I'd like to make a few comments on the Not Really 6 x 6's, if that is okay. Firstly I just love Shelagh's solution with her comfort afgan. It is almost like a crazy quilt. The black background is a major element and it doesn't matter at all how...

6x6 fun and lessons...LOL by Els van Dam
I have been working on my 6 patch. It is in two colours I thought that this would be a good time to try the two coloured knitting. Using left and right hand at the same time. The pattern is an easy one, out of my Norwegian knitting book. The first tries were frogged, not once but several times....

Felting - Knit or Crochet? by Sarah Carter
I was thinking about making a few felted bags. I've knitted an oversized bag before and then put it in the washing machine to shrink it, and wondered if a crocheted piece would work in a similar way? I was thinking that a double crochet piece might end up being too "holey" and need lining whereas...
