I think it goes to show how much some of us are dreaming of getting away from it all...you know just a little time off before the holiday crazies. "Els van Dam" wrote in message ... Just wanted to know if you guys never...

Hi all, Thinking of making a homemade Christmas. We've recently moved 360 miles from family and thought it would be nice to make pillowghans rather than something bought. Thanks in advance...

I mailed your squares this morning. The postman said you should get them in 2 or 3 days. Carol Ann

Actually I have 2 squares done here. Am not sure of the size but you see it better than me. I will send them as soon as I can. Best: Pirjo

What a lovely description- it sounds like it was a magical day, Cher. Regards Sarah

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I have knitted it rather much. I like knitting, can't deny. The bag is pink. I think I have told you about the blankie I am gonna make to use with it. Have not started that yet but found a pattern for it. Hopefully it works. Best: Pirjo

Hi RCTYers The frugal Christmas post got me thinking about how many of us have unloved yarn within our stashes that somebody else would probably love and that we could trade with them for something else. It would be a good opportunity to offload some excess stash in return for something more...

And going out to Madelaine Monday morning. Hugs, Noreen PS, Madelaine, there's no need to hurry, take your time. Noreen's Knit*che (Knitting, Crocheting, Tatting & BobbinLace are my NICHE in life...) NATA #447 (my family tree is FULL of 'nuts'!)

Past time I went to a yarn shop, I noticed that the neutral color thread used in waving carpets/rugs (sorry, I don´t know its name in English) is much cheaper than crochet thread. Has someone tried to crochet it? I wanted to buy it, but a friend of mine, who uses it for waving traditional Swedish...

Dear Helen what a great surprise I found in our mailbox today. Thak you. We have tried to use a CD as circle for the kumihimo braiding, but did not get the slots neat and straight. The edges were just to ragged for it to be safe to use. The one you mailed to me in its very own neat box, is...

I have just recieved the message that Sweedish foreign minister Anna Lind is dead, after been "stabbed" yesterday! I am so sorry, and do not know what to say! I am by her family and you all in my thoughts! Today is sept. 11. The "symbol of terror", I feel. I am in my thoughts by you in USA, and...

Has anyone ever made the two bags from the pattern Small packages? I think it was on a leaflet distributed by J & P Coats using their Crochet Nylon. Recently I was able to find the yarn to make up the two patterns, one knit and one crochet, but haven't had the time to get very far on either. I...

You are welcome, Betty. I hope you like them. There is no rush with yours. Take your time. I can wait. Best: Pirjo Betty Blankenship kirjoitti ... I received my lovely red squares from Pirjo! Thank you Pirjo! I've...

So I go to my IL's to work on his computer. I take the garter stitch shawl. The MIL wanted to know what I was working on - I should have told her its a williewarmer and let her speculate. However, I 'fessed up. She immediately started going on about how cold it is in church and how NICE it...

She:kon Akwekon, Greetings all. Got a Craw in my cap and now want to TRY weaving a small throw. I found some BASIC info on about.com but it's a bit toooooo basic. Am I correct in thinking that the loom is as simple as a square picture frame of wood with evenly spaced nails/pegs at 2...

Sadly, it is time for me to make my farewells. Tomorrow, I drive down to San Diego (Lakeside, CA really) and start my job. I get to enjoy blistering dry heat, lost of sun, and people who have never sat a horse before. Actually, it won't be that bad. I'm kind of looking forward to it. I have no...
