UFO no more! by SlinkyToy
I'm making the Aran pullover from 2Sticks&aString. Nothing complicated, and now that I've got the body going in the round I have high hopes of finishing the whole thing by summer's end. This is a challenge sweater. A friend and I ended up with a sh*tload of the same yarn in our stashes, so we...

Where to start...? by Pirjo Ilvesvuori
Well..maybe I am gonna a bit selfish and start from myself and my health. This summer is crazy. First it took my lungs. Now it has stolen my voice almost completely. I can't sing at all and can hardly talk. I have drunk 2 cups of tea with honey today, and the voice goes worse and worse. I...

My situation now by Pirjo Ilvesvuori
I feel my voice is a bit stronger now, but I do not dare to even try to sing. I just move my lips...if you get the point. Singing silent...ARGH!!! I'd love to sing aloud, but I must spare my voice. If I do not do that, it may lose - for good. That I'd hate. Thanks for being there for me...Time and...

Name that tool! by SlinkyToy
Anybody know what this is? The big board is curved and mounted on a frame that can be clamped to a table. I know I've seen these online but of course now I can't find it. The closest thing I've found is a "carding board" which is flat and looks smaller than this thing I...
