.... my daughter rides her little 50cc scooter to work and comes home late at night when it's really cold, so I decided to knit her a pair of legwarmers to wear on her way home (she wears skirts and hose to work) so she doesn't freeze. In my small stash of other people's cast-offs (pun not...

knitting a picture into a scarf by myswendy
Hi guys, I'm in the midst of making Christmas presents. After one pretty not-so- great attempt at stitching a tractor design on a hat, I am faced with the same problem for a scarf and finally am crying "UNCLE!", as we say. I have been saving images off the web (Mario and Sonic the Hedgehog), then...

Knitting Magazine advice by LaundryGal
Hi Scott, If you end up running into a dead end with the magazine subscriptions, you might try a knitting "package." Find a local yarn shop (hopefully there's at least one) and ask one of the staff to help you put together an inexpensive packet of knitting gifts -- a magazine issue or two that...

Stitch patterns for dark wool yarns by Alan
I have some dark purple worsted weight wool yarn that I'd like to make a shawl or scarves out of. I find that many stitch patterns get lost in dark yarns. Any suggestions? Thanks! Alan

Gaffer's Instructions for an Umbrella Swift by JJMolvik
Has anyone made one of these? My DF and I were going to, but he passed away before we could get it figured out. I want to make (at least) one for my DSIL for Christmas, but might need to be asking "dumb" questions (easier to handle than dumb mistakes.) TIA JJMolvik
