OT Apology for Possible Name Confusion by
[email protected]
A few weeks ago, I dismantled the old computer from my DS's room.
The poor box just can't take it anymore!! It is 8 years old, afterall.
But ever since, I am now noticing that they are signing on to google
groups with their moniker and not logging out. So I apologise for the
different monikers -...

Gauge by
Mystified One
Saw a tunic sweater pattern I really love, only I couldn't find a blue
worsted, so I bought a boucle. I knitted a swatch of yarn (I'm using
boucle, the pattern said worsted). The swatch came up to 14 stitches for 4

Elizabeth's/Meg's form-fitted arch by
Slinky
Has anyone successfully knitted the form-fitted arch stocking from
Knitting with Meg? A friend has made several false starts, so I'm
about to embark on it myself. My friend believes the first shaping
round should read "knit to 5 before marker" instead of 6. I'm
inclined to agree, since...

OT Back on track. by
Olwyn Mary
Hi everyone. I haven't been posting lately because my server wouldn't
let me!! Seems they were doing things to their system. Anyway, I have
been offering prayers for all who asked for them, and rejoicing with
those who had good news - it's just that I could read but not write
for a while...

6x6 for November received by
Katherine
From Marie. Two beautiful squares, knitted. One is a kind of dark sage, and
has an embossed cross. The other looks like dark green sandwich spread, if
you can picture that. It is dark green with flecks of red and yellow in it.
I would love to have a sweater made from this. She also included a...

I think I have virtually cornered the market on old structo's kids! I
am trying to furnish a classroom/studio so have been getting as many as
I can. I feel like a millionaire.

regular retail (or higher) price? What do they...

Leopard Print crochet blanket pattern? by
Bryan
A friend of mine wants me to make a leopard print baby blanket to match the
Noah's Ark theme nursery. Any suggestions on where to find a yellow & brown
or black mix yarn soft enough for baby? I was going to just do a shell
stitch, but any other suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks
Bryan

Sewing by
Katherine
I hate sewing. I hate sewing. I hate sewing.
I mentioned earlier that I had to make an apron today. Pretty simple, you
would think. I went to school to use the clothing lab, so that I could make
a mess, clean it up, and not be interrupted. Well! This apron is a kind of
pop-over-the-head, and quite...

October 6x6 received by
Janise
I received 2 lovely crocheted squares from Laura today. I am always so
appreciative of crocheted squares since I can only make granny squares while
crocheting. Laura also sent an address book which will take the place of my
current address book which is falling apart.

What can I say???? by

Except thank you, thank you, thank you. I went to the mail today, and there
was a box for me from Nora. "What is this?" I asked myself, knowing that she
was not my 6x6 partner. She had warned me through e-mail that I should be on
the look-out for a parcel from her, but I had no idea what would be...
