Boy's Don't Knit! by Padishar Creel
As a 'boy' who knits I was intrigued with a children's picture book entitled, "Boy's Don't Knit!" by Janice Shoop. It is a wonderful book and I really enjoyed that dealt with the subject of boys knitting. A grandfather informs the boy in the story, "Boys' fingers are just as nimble as girls', and...

The PEI trail to Wool by Aaron Lewis
http://www.peisland.com/wool/ We were staying at this inn on Cape Breton, and they had a nice ceramic bowl in the hall. We inquired, and the potter that made the bowl, had her studio right around the corner. We found it (no road signs)! The Potter's husband, "R" was tending shop. Lots of nice...

Witchy Pic by Erin
Hej! Aud, you should even be able to read the text (since it's in Swedish) and those of you who read German can probably get the gist of it. Those who don't can just have fun looking at the pic! I think I look like one of the Norns untangling the red thread....

Did someone mention... by spampot[_2_]
....Addi needles for lace? I thought I saw a mention of it but can't find it (that may of course be due to the migraine drugs). I ask because I think I mentioned trying to make a scarf with some beautiful two-ply cashmere laceweight that is slack-twisted enough that no matter what needles I...

Moth help! by Mary Fisher
Today I took out a shawl which a daughter knitted for me some years ago from her own spun Hebridean black wool from the two Heb ewe lambs I gave her. She'd chosen the stitch 'candlelight' because I made beeswax candles. It had huge holes in it and it's unsalvageable. Does anyone know of any...

Wooly by Katherine
Continuing with dog news, I wanted to share our latest about Wooly. As some of you know, when I came home in February, we found out that Wooly was developing cataracts. Well, when I went back after Easter, we discovered that she had diabetes. It must have been developing for some time, as she is...
