No, I am not going to knit a Fair Island sweater (I would like to be able) but I just have looked at a very interesting documentary film about the Fair Island. What a magical and irreal place! A lovely lady runs the local knitting museum and told about the story of two colours knitting. The knitted...

Hi Pirjo, Thanks for letting us know you are doing better. Hugs, Aunt Nora

But do you believe: I am sitting here with bad conscience. I am just thinking of what I SHOULD have done! *irritating!!!!* Now, now.... what you SHOULD do is exactly what your doctor ordered. Make a list of all that other stuff you think of, and you can do it later (or not). If it makes...

I missed this, too, since I was out for Labor Day and my birthday and having computer trouble at home. Noreen and I could be matched, it seem s to me. I was a little confused about the color aspect of this, though. Madelaine Noreen's Knit*che wrote: Okay, I've obviously missed out on...

Just in case it didn't get to your mailbox.... I know we've agreed on worsted, and our colors... but(!)... we forgot to discuss TYPE of yarn... is acrylic OK with YOU?

Yesterday I found this very funny website, with funny mistakes from newspapers, ads and other stuff. A little bit Jay Leno´s style :-D http://www.tema.ru:8084/rrr/MAPA3M/ I wanted to share it with you, since there are other Russian speakers here :-) For those who don´t speak Russian I translate...

Hi! Yesterday I was at the local traditions museum, where, among other things, I could admire a very lovely and very old crochet filet lace. It was inserted in something which looked like a night clothes bag and one could read "sof godt" on it (no, it's not a mistake, it's just the old Swedish...

I must either have the wrong catalog or be looking right at the scarf and not see it. Could you describe it a bit more, please? What color is it, or what brand yarn is it made of or even what page is it on? "Katherine Burgess" wrote in...

Blocking is one of those things I love to hate. I don't do it. Well, for lace and for colorwork, but not much else. IMO if you're knitting to gauge you shouldn't NEED to block. Felting (technically, fulling) has nothing to do with blocking. Fulling happens when you toss your wool sweater into...

What was Costco's price? I wasn't looking closely @ my Costco yesterday and didn't see it. ( 'course it might not have had it) I did a quick peruse while waiting for my computer @ the computer doctor store. JJMolvik
