wpi measure for Cebelia 40? by Anastasia Luettecke

Blocking 100% Silk by hesira
I was wondering what everyone's take on blocking 100% silk was. I'm working on a scarf (Liesel), and I'm a long way from blocking, but I've been thinking about how I'll do it. I've googled it, and gotten some varying opinions: Some say be brutal, some say be ginger. Some say really stretch it,...

neat new hiding place for your stash by Mystified One[_2_]
Anybody have a file cabinet? Use hanging file folders and there's just enough clearance at the bottom to hold a layer of small skeins.

New to Knitting - suggestions? by [email protected]
Hi. I've done a lot of crochet. However, I've decided that I want to learn how to knit. Does anyone have a suggestion for a good beginner pattern, preferably something for a baby? I've got a short attention span, so baby items are perfect! LOL!
