I just found out what purl is in knitty. by
ILovemyDoggie.
I was just got to watch this new show called Knitty Gritty and there
was a woman on it showing people how to make a flap hat. She got to the
point where she told about about the purl stitch and I saw what that
was b/c I watch really hard at the television screen. Purl means two
stiches together. It...

Pirate invasion by
Eastern Edge
I've been invaded by a pirate, but he's very cute so I think I'll keep
him.
This is the result of a pirate hat request:

Good "learning to knit" book? by
BonnieBlue
My niece has expressed an interest in learning to knit so for Christmas I
thought I would gift her with a book and some good yarn and needles for a
specific project (a scarf?) and, of course, a coupon for unlimited knitting
lessons. I was looking at books on the internet and plan to go peruse...

Happiness is a new spinning wheel by
Vintage Purls
Well, okay an "almost new" spinning wheel. I managed to buy an ex demo
Ashford double-drive traditional wheel for a song on Trademe (our local
equivalent of eBay). It arrived today and was quickly assembled. My old
wheel was over 30 years in age and rather clunky. The new one runs
beautifully...

Wildfoote Sock Yarn by
DAB
I ordered 6 skeins in 3 different colors and should get them by Sat. I was
wondering if any here have used this for socks and what you thought. I like
Lambs Pride for hats. I started a pair of socks using Opal and didn't like
how it felt....not much give or spring so I hope the wildfoote will...

Doll sweater finished! by
myswendy
Ok, call me proud. Call me nutz. Call me redundant.
I finally got the website squared away to show off my little 4-inch
sweater! VP was kind enough to help me with the technical parts (I'd
rather be knitting) and get 'er up there on the web.
It worked out to gauge but I am still concerned it will...

Comfortafghan for Marrissa by
norabalcer
Hi Everyone,
I've asked permission from Dawn to do a comfortafghan for Marrissa and
she said it would be a lovely thing for us to do so here goes. I need
two 6x6 squares by the 31st of Jan. That gives us time to get past the
holidays and she will be in need of hugs for a long time.
Hugs,
Nora

Changes in attitude re hand knit products by
Susan Carey
I may have written once before about my soon-to-be-dil asking me why I
bothered to knit an afghan when I could go out and buy a blanket. Well,
not too long after that discussion, she sent me a picture of a hat she
wanted. She asked if I would knit that for her in exchange for a
picture I wanted...

A "rant"... by
Jenn Vanderslice
I really believe that people think, "They'd just be sitting around
knitting anyway, so why should they charge me for something they already
be doing in their spare time?"
I hate this attitude. The best way to get me to never make something is
to ask me to do it....then tell me exactly how you want...

While we are discussing tv, can anyone tell me anything about this? I

Washington Week and McLaughlin Group this evening (we tape nearly
everything these days, to watch at our leisure) and it looked interesting.

pattern seeking by
enigma
i'm looking for a knitting pattern for a nice shawl or lapghan
to make for my grandma's 101st birthday in May. i'm not a fast
knitter so something fast & easy would be best, i think, but
something with more pizazz than plain garter stitch.

OT - Likely won't be online tomorrow! by
MRH
I have to go to the hospital very early in the morning for a colonoscopy,
then come home to "rest" for the day. Not looking forward to it, but at the
same time I'm hoping this helps the doctor to figure out what is going on
with my stomach problems I've had over the last 6 years that *nothing*...

Hey, everyone! Darlene and I got together tonight, finally! As you
know, she comes to Montreal once in a while, and we finally connected.
I have to tell you - she is great! And she deserves the wonderful
