One has to bend and open the closure side just a tad, and use one DP or single of the same size, knit off the 'opening' end, then place...

About that chocolate cake by SlinkyToy
Today I made the cake - just the cake part, mind, using cheap chocolate, to be sure I can do it tomorrow. I sent the naked cake with my boy and my ILs to late church, where it was apparently quite a hit. Tomorrow, the good Valrhona 65% chocolate and the rum-flavored chocolate buttercream...

Ribbit, ribbit by SlinkyToy
Well, I just yanked the 50-odd rows of my shawl. Finished the last pattern row I worked missing some 20 stitches. Tinked back 4 rows and was still short. Pinned the thing out on a dark towel and discovered my missing stitches -- running merrily for the hills, so to speak. I did save the bit of...

Berlin wool? by Katherine Burgess
What is the gauge of your Berlin wool? As for the pins, I would think that they are British (non-metric) sizes, and yarnforward has a conversion table on their site. HTH I can't help with the fleeces, but I am sure that someone here will do so. Katherine "KARoloff" wrote in...

losing my mind - Great American Aran Afghan by redalet
