Phew! I got it right! by
Pirjo Ilvesvuori
The first part of the decreasing operation is done. And
there is 72 stitches at the moment. You bet it was hard to
do. Had to put a marking yarn to every 5th stitch. But I did
it anyway. Phew! Now the second part and then it is done -
at least for a while.
Best: Pirjo

OT - I really am not good now by
Katherine Burgess
Poor you, Pirjo! How about some dry crackers? Or maybe you should give your
stomach a rest for a day, and then try eating something light.
Hugs,
Katherine

Anyway, it aks for 3-1/2-oz balls 2-fold stocking yarn. That's a new one to
me. Does anyone...

Hi Laura,
Welcome to the group! I live on the East coast, so can't help you
knitting clubs in Santa Barbara. But, maybe you could check with your local
yarn stores. They'll probably be able to help. There is also something
called International Knitting Meetup Day. If you go to the...

Looking for Marilyn Barone - the senior helper by
Foo Finder
Hi,
I saw her post back in the 1990's. She wanted to help seniors learn
how to use a PC.
I'm just wondering what happened to her?
Anyone else know of any programs to join where we can help seniors?

Hi, Laura, and welcome to the group. I live in Labrador, in northeastern
Canada, so cannot help you with your search for a knitting club in CA. g I
am a knitter, primarily, but there are many renaissance ladies here who do
all kinds of crafts. I am sure that they will welcome you,...

Clueless by
Claire
I'm having a radical thought here - about knitting, of course. Okay, it's
probably not radical to most of you but it is a little scary to me and I've
no idea if I am completely on the wrong track or if this is something that
everyone else has known for ever but just has never occured to me...

Phildar Perle 5 question by
Deb
I have to make a doily for a customer and the pattern calls for
Phildar Perle 5. What size is that? Normally, I would just crochet
with size 10 thread, but since it's for someone else - I need to make
sure the size thread is what the pattern calls for so the doily will
be the right size.

pattern search - shrug to wear with a wedding dress by
Karen
I just saw a fancy crocheted bolero in a Lions Brand catalog that I got in
the mail recently. It was marked as a new item. Very open stitch, so it
looked lacy -- the yarn they used was Watercolors, described as a bulky
weight, soft merino wool blend; and then it had fun fur trim. It...

Thanks everyone by
KARoloff
Thank you - that definition of Berlin wool and Zephyr weight was perfect. The
pattern calls for size 14 needles (I'm assuming metric, as this was before the
American system was invented, but there is no gauge.
I'll try felting the wool; I've got some carded, and the staple is about 2-3".
I'll let...
