Was it on this group someone was looking for a Super Mario chart? http://wikiknitting.com/wiki/Super_Mario_Felted_Bag It is a felted bag, and most of mario seems to be embroidered on afterwards, but maybe you can adapt the graph to suit you. It was for a hat, wasn't it? There is a Mario...

Old Moze, the Israeli tour guide, was well-past retirement age but he continued to take older tourists to locations that were not too hard to get to. His customers always enjoyed these tours. You could ask any of them and they would literally sing his praises: "Moze's tour ya sure oughtta see." G...

Hi guys! I've been trying to find a simple pattern for Super Mario from Nintendo. I don't want one that will take forever to create, since I have already done the other hats, etc for the other kids in the family. I know absolutely nothing about it, but a friend's son wants a scarf like that. Any...

does anyone have a copy of Knitter's magazine, Winter 2000 (i think it's issue 61) that they would be willing to sell me? it's sold out & i really want to make my mom the Sleeves in Your Pi shawl. any suggestions of where i could find the pattern elsewhere gratefully accepted also. my library...

I have a yarn shop that I am closing. All of the yarn that I have is selling for 40% off. Most of my yarn is Red Heart, although I also have Lion, Paton, Caron, Bernat, and Cascases Sierra.

I come here to read posts about yarn. NOT to be thrust back into high school-level arguments about who said or did what in the PAST. Let's all grow up, ignore people whom we don't like, and get back to the yarn stuff. --Anastasia Who is so sick of half of the posts on the group being related...

Hi Everyone I am a knitter - but also a journalist for CBS News. I spend a lot of time in war zones - mostly recently Iraq - and knit while on assignment to help cope with stress. Recently while in Baghdad I ordered some wool online. My yarn supplier, seeing where I was writing from, asked if...

I finally learned how to cable without a cable needle - it is so fun! I used Grumperina's method, found he http://www.grumperina.com/cables.htm I've always wanted to learn this but the last time I did a cabling project, it was a 15-stitch cable and I really didn't think that was a good one...

I've been spinning Romney all week as (mostly) worsted, turned into 3-ply that will probably be a sweater when it grows up. I'm also slowly stringing beads on scarf fringes - the commission fell through, though I'm not refunding the deposit. I now have fewer scarves to make by Christmas...

I have been working on those nasty tessellated fish for ages and have tried at least a dozen times and messed up. I think I found the solution. I entered each row on my checklist software that synchronizes between my desktop and my Palm Pilot. I can check off the check box on each row as I...

I am a crochet beginner and have a couple of questions. I have mastered some of the basic stitches but am having trouble knowing exactly what to do in a pattern. For example, in my pattern (I have just done a row of dc, and turned the work), then for the next row it says "work 1 ch, 1dc into each...

1 ch isn`t a subsititude for a Dc , hence she might be right that they meant 1ch.1dc over each dc if you want to start a dc by raising , you need 3 ch ,,,,, mirjam I'm sure they mean to just work one chain at the beginning of the row and then one dc into each stitch of the row. The chain...

Does anyone have a favorite/best way of storing shawls when they are not being worn? Right now I have mine kind of folded in half, then rolled up. I don't want them getting squished or creased or the fringe messed up in a drawer or on a shelf when not in use. Thanks! Marie and the cats

Hi guys, I've been busy at work and little time for play. I've missed you all! In my bits of spare time, I've been sewing more tiny sweaters, etc. Now, it's something else. A friend's little boy would like me to make him a hat with a tractor on it. I can't seem to find any patterns for this....
