stinky yarn by Laurie
Ugh, I just learned a lesson. I bought some yarn off ebay. Nothing huge or expensive. Just an inexpensive kit of yarn in Packers colors for a gift. The kit came and actually the box it was packed in smelled overwhelmingly like potpourri. I thought, "how nice." But when I opened the little...

afghan square by Laura
I'm doing a knitted square like you described. It's the center panel for a shawl. Two stitches is a good start. As for when you decrease, that depends on how big you want it to be. The center panel for my shawl is done in garter stitch and doesn't start till I have 116 sts. The pattern is...

Another technique of knitting by AGRES
Yesterday, I attended Emma Popek's party celebrating the release of her latest book, and Emma had suggested that I bring my knitting. It was a very cosmopolitan group. The woman sitting next to me leaned to knit in Bombay more than 50 years ago. She showed me a knitting technique that I had...

Re- Stiffner for doilies by Goaliemom
I just wanted to say that this post brought back some memories for me. I remember my mom having a very large stretcher board for her doilies. It resembled a peg board but had doily shapes printed on it. Circles and squares patterns for you to follow. She had a bag of special pegs for...

The DNA Strand in Yarn... by Sandy Best
Someone had posted before about the double stranded DNA in yarn (http://noodle.pds.k12.nj.us/june/). The pattern is for knitting. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions about how I could change it to crochet. I don't know how to knit, so I don't understand the pattern! I haven't tried...

Purling With Yarn In The Back by jess
I came across this link last night: http://www.knittinggeek.com/howto/norwegianpurl.htm It explains something called "Norwegian Purl" where you always keep the yarn to the back. This sounds fantastic to me, because as a beginning knitter I've only just got the hang of purling and had...

What is the main feeling on selling items that are trademarked? by Mary
I was wondering what the main feeling was on selling trademarked items. It seems the average person would go more for a familiar image than a generic one. I have some great Rugrats ornaments but not sure how the main consumer would feel about such an item shown for sale on my site. Any suggestions?...

Help with finding pre printed latch hook canvas by Sonya Cirillo
Nope - I don't believe I've seen that. . . however you can work any cross stitch and/or needlepoint design straight from the chart - needlepoint is easier - cross stitch you have to made sure it doesn't contain a ton of partial stitches and no back stitching that matters. Specialty stitches -...

Thank you for your support by Cheryl Isaak
I went to my friend's funeral yesterday; long drive and heat made a bad day worse. Oh and my exhusband's presence for a mere annoyance and proof she could love everyone. You all would have liked her, she was a knitter and crocheted too. She made blankets for various charities. She lived a lot in...

OT earworms by spampot
Strangely enough, today's New York TImes had an article about those songs that get stuck in your head, and apparently the scientific name for them IS earworms (can't remember whether anyone posted that or not). See: http://www.nytimes.com/2003/08/12/science/12EAR.html
