Socks and reinforcing thread by Sue W
I recently acquired some sock yarn (thanks eBay!) which comes with a small reel of matching thread for reinforcing the heels and toes. I can think of two ways to incorporate it but I don't know which is best. I could knit it in with the main yarn or darn the reverse through the purl loops...

LusterSheen by Dawn Alguard
My mother sent me a link to a pattern she likes for a shawl made from J&P Coats LusterSheen. I've never worked with this before and none of my local chains carry it. If I understand what it is correctly, it's a sport weight crochet thread? I don't really want to order 6 balls sight unseen. Any...

Poncho Pattern to try by Warmhands
This pattern is normally used with two balls of yarn at the same time. I am trying it with one. I have made a mistake on the first row already as I did not knit all the way around as I should have but rather than ripping it out I am just going to keep going and see what happens. Here is the...

Re Susan's Stitch by Susan Carey
I think it is really funny that I was sitting here just getting ready to tell you how I got those edges. For any others who wonder, it is the pattern for the domino or modular square. On the back or row 2 side, knit to last stitch and slip as if to purl. On the first stitch on front side knit into...

Binding Off Problem by JoyceG in WA
Here's my problem! I have completed a shawl made from Soy Silk yarn, which is really more like a narrow ribbon than a traditional yarn. The shawl has a very long edge to bind off. I *thought* I had left enough yarn to bind off, but about two-thirds of the way through, of course I realized that I...
