Busted ;-0 by
news.sonic.net
Alan came in today and caught me working on a 12" graph square in the afghan
stitch.
Knowing that I am already currently working on a blanket for my bed, a

afghan for him, he asked me why I can't finish one project before...

load this semester (15 hours - which happens to be only 4 classes) so

Naalbinding by
Eleanore G. Hewitt
I was watching a lady yesterday who was doing "Naalbinding" - a
form of knitting/crocheting that can be documented back to the
Vikings. She was using a single, simple bone needle (she made it
herself), and some lovely wool yarn she bought in Germany. She
called it knitting, but as we watched her...
