knitting magazine on the web by Bob
hi everyone, I was told by a friend about a new web based knitting magazine which looks pretty good. I really like some of the patterns on there, but this is only the first issue, so it will be interesting to see if it can keep up the same quality in the future. What do others think? It's...

30 Cross Stitch Magazines to sell ! by Flipper
Hi, I live in Montreal, Canada, and I have 30 cross stitch magazines to sell, all in very good condition ! Half of them are in English, the other half is in French (but does it make a difference to read a pattern!?) :-) I sell them all together preferably. The whole list is available upon request.

Sock Heels, how many different ways? by the Furrsome Threesome
So, I'm starting sock #6 (the second of pair 3), and #7 simultaneously - this is a great habit for ADD, I can have half-finished socks lying all over the condo and pick one up when the urge strikes. Have done 5 so far, I find I don't like the heel that my pattern (Paton's kroy jaquard and stripes...

Clogs/slippers are ready filted.. by Aud

Ping.Nora. by Olwyn Mary
Hi Nora, and all the others who only pop in now and again.(plus, of course, those who are still regular posters.) We have finally had a few chilly evenings down here, so instead of turning up the heat I have been snuggling into my "comfortghan" which lives on the back of my chair. Thank you...

Sittch gauge by dawn
In knitting a fitted sweater I found the inches of the back 2" under the measurement it should be although the guage square was perfect, I am going to try larger needles, should this be a problem? I have always altered the pattern before but a few knitters have told me this works just fine. Are...

Project Linus address by Georgia
I heard about the Linus Project (http://www.projectlinus.org/index.shtml), which funnels handmade blankets to seriously ill children, about ten years ago, and immediately began a (knitted) log cabin blanket. I have finally declared it finished, and it needs to be on its way. Alas I cannot find...

stupid question number 2 by Madelaine
In two-color work, when you span more than 3 stiches, the pattern recommends "weaving the yarn in" so there aren't big loops on the back. How does one do this? The final product is to be felted (the coasters I posted before). I am enjoying the two color work. Madelaine

Yarn Weights by René
Hi! I haven't knit in quite a while, so I'm amazed at all the lovely new yarns available. However, I'm confused at how to tell what "weight" a yarn is. For example, my favorite knitted cap calls for sports weight yarn. But the new "fuzzy" yarns don't specify what they are. How can I figure...
