My GOSH you women are so sweet! Yes, I did get the e-mail, and yes, kumihimo sounds fun! I've googled posts about it, and have one set of directions that were posted here awhile ago, but Els, if you have a different pattern or something, it would be appreciated. Kumihimo sounds as if it would be...

my goodness, Gwen!!! Those curtains are gorgeous!! as well as the others, of course! :) Allaya "Martin Eccles" wrote in message ... I've just uploaded loads of photos from Gwen. I have a feeling that some of ...

Clair,I notice that Stella said the rug is machine knitted - but I thought it looked like the lovely ones I have seen made from plaited strips of various fabrics - whichever it is it is really beautiful. Stella does magnificient work - I love the bread doiley but then I love all her work - just...

Dear all I haven't been around so much lately as doctoral things have been a little overwhelming (and i sprained my back 2 weeks ago- ouch)...but i just had my viva and i was awarded my PhD. It's all a little new and unbelievable at the mo but it is sinking in. RCTY has been a haven of calm and...

What a bonanza... went stash shopping and 'just' shopping today...I got seventeen POUNDS of Caron's one-pound skeins, and then two eight ounce skeins, so... 18 lbs. of yarn! Lots of throws, stadium blankets, afghans! Also, purchased a book I've been coveting, "The Complete Encyclopedia...

Gosh Nora, Gwen and Stella.. your work is beautiful:)) I can see many hours of practicing ahead for me:) O "Martin Eccles" wrote in message ...

Sorry Nora, I don't have one but it looks like a rectangle about 6" x 10". Melody, I've also printed it out, do you have a picture of the finished doll that we can see? Hugs,

Els, I've just received an email that I 'think' you meant to either reply to a post, or email someone else off list. I believe it was meant for Kathy (anti-Kathy), not for me! Love, Noreen -- Noreen's Knit*che NATA #447 (my family tree is FULL of 'nuts')

Thanks, Martin, I had missed some of these. Excellent work, Ladies. Stella, I loved your bear with the colourful belly. I guess he was crocheted, was he? Gwen, the Ann Hathaway cottage was marvellous! Thanks to everyone for sharing. Katherine "Martin Eccles" wrote in...

Actually, I highly doubt I invented it. ;-) I finished my first knitting project and I LOVED how it turned out. I was having a really hard time with gauge (I knit SO tight) that I got some beautiful hand dyed chunky wool from Uraguay to knit a simple scarf. It has the most beautiful blues,...

Carol, Just making sure all is okay after all our storms. Hugs, Noreen -- Noreen's Knit*che NATA #447 (my family tree is FULL of 'nuts')

I found it ironic that the same day 'our' (meaning USA's) "baby girl", Jessica Lynch finally came home to Palestine, Virginia, Hussein's baby boys are reported dead. Noreen -- Noreen's Knit*che NATA #447 (my family tree is FULL of 'nuts')

Lovely work, Gwen. My favorite is your "scrap" vest. Did you knit it top-down, bottom-up, or side to side? It is hard to tell from the picture. Janise

Hi Group! Which is 'tighter' in YOUR work? Knitting Purling Hugs, Noreen **My knitting tends to be 'tighter'.

Allaya wrote: REALLY???? You can dye nylon???? Do tell! What do you use to dye nylon? Any dye that will work on protein fibers, usually; i.e., acid dyes. (not fiber-reactive, those are for cellulose fibers.) Nylon basically reacts like silk; so if something will dye silk, it should dye...

Cher, I wasn't the one doing the searching - Eleanore was. Once Eleanore made the accusation that Gem had gone to other groups looking for money, I decided to look at the groups that Eleanore said that Gemini was in asking for cash. I found NOTHING. So lets get this straight -- I DID NOT MAKE THE...

Hello All Does anybody know when the Spinrite tent sale is in Listowel, Ontario. I would really, REALLY like to go this year. Thanks Nadia

Hi Group! What comes to mind when 'crochet' is mentioned? Do you think of crocheting with YARN, or crocheting with THREAD? Hugs, Noreen **I think of both, as I DO both Noreen** Noreen's Knit*che
