Ok. I have hand washed DH's new socks so many times, that I am ready to throw them in the washer. They are 100% merino wool and I know that felting is a potential problem. Here's the deal: I have a front loading washer that is very gentle on clothes. I've looked around on the net and found...

Wooly, I lost the post in which you answered my question about Koigu PPPM. The link you provided to wiseneedle.com was helpful, as was your personal review and experience with various yarns for the purposes of sock making. I appreciate the time you took to respond. You're very kind. One of the...

Hi Caro, I had a few minutes this morning and opened up my charting software and played with the Hot Wheels logo. The best image I could come up with is a rather large knit chart. You'll need to use fingering weight yarn and get a gauge of 8 stitches and 10 rows per inch (which is what I get...

What, in your OWN opinion was the ugliest thing you've ever knitted or crocheted? Did others think it ugly as well, or was it just 'you'? Have you ever made another 'like' it, because it kind of/sort of "grew" on you? A discussion topic brought to you by: :D ;) who else?

I really had to think about this, then remembered that EVERYTHING I've ever made is in my journals, so I did a quick scan over the almost 42 years I've been at it, and the ugliest thing I ever knitted was: My first socks, done at age 11, and I still have them! They were ice-skating socks.......

I am starting to knit the sweater on the front cover of Creative Knitting Magazine. (May 2006) It is mindless knitting. I just finished an Aran afghan and am quite reading to knit simply. Some time ago I knitted wtih cotton and carried a filament along with the yarn. I am using Fantasy...

I received 3 lovely squares from Laura in cream wool, beautifully made and a lovely textured yarn, it looks like an Aran/fisherman's wool, also some stitch markers and stoppers for needles (not sure what they're called, but they keep the stitches on the needles, lol!) I am always finding my...

I am interested in the above yarn but for the life of me I can't seem to order it from yarn market. They feature this yarn on their Caldo page with no way (or at least no way I can find to do it). Anyway, have any of you had experience with this yarn? I am looking for an all wool (maybe a blend...
