Merry Christmas!!!!!!!

Crazy leftover slippers by
Tuulia
This old pattern from some ancient Finnish magazine popped up again, and
I had to try it. Anyone who loves to knit in garter stitch will find the

Slinky
Since school is out for the holidays my Friday afternoon knitting
group met at a popular cafe that has a playground in earshot of the

Ot a request to UK people by
Elizabeth
Hi Mirjam
BT directory enquiries has a web based service where you can look up the
number, perhaps with more details like address, etc, you will be able to
find it - so long as it's not ex-directory. I did try, but the service was
too busy and they asked me to try again...

knitting journal by
Agres
The most important fact to record in your knitting journal is where the
object is hidden while waiting to be wraped and tagged for Christmass. I
simply did not remember knitting that pair of socks, but I seemed to be

Socks: sport weight or sock yarn? by
Knitterbugs
Hi everyone;
I've never made socks before, but I want to give it a try. Most of the sock
patterns on the web call for sport weight yarn. Can someone tell me the
difference between sport weight and sock yarn? I'm thinking the sport weight
might be thicker, but I'm just guessing. I was think of...
