If anyone has any of these old booklets they're willing to part with, I'm VERY interested. Hugs, Noreen Noreen's Knit*che (Knitting, Crocheting, Tatting & BobbinLace are my NICHE in life...) NATA #447 (my family tree is FULL of 'nuts'!)

You are coming through loud and clear, Noreen. Hugs, Katherine wrote in message ... Test after installing some new stuff and uninstalling some other stuff. Just making sure all still 'works' the way it did 'before'...

Sue, Thanks for sending me that info about the yarn on ebay, AND for offering to 'get' it for me if I was uncomfortable with ebay.... (I'm not, I have an account, grin). The color just wasn't quite like the beautiful stuff you made my memento square of, so I have to pass. How much is left on the...

http://crochet.about.com/library/blcrazyst.htm I'm really grateful to the about.com people for translating the old instructions, but I'm a bit peeved that the modern directions being "make a chain as long as necessary" instead of saying "make a chain of a multiple of X sts." I really don't know...

Sweet woman, the package arrived this morning! I've emailed you off-list!! BIG cyber hugs! Love, Noreen

Hi again ladies! It is me here. I just came from Aino's place. And there I sat and knitted away. She is nice lady, as always. Our friendship is deep and I brushed her hair again. She did not resist. I got few rows done. Great case! I think I will knit more when time is right. Best: Pirjo

I had little worries with this system of mine but now OE works again. Aino invited and I promised so I will go there. I will be there all night. When new light takes the world, I return home. And I am gonna knit, nothing to worry. Best: Pirjo

I have been thinking of crocheting some throw rugs, as some of you know from my recent posts. One of the patterns I like calls for 30 balls of J&P Coats Speed Cro-Sheen, article C44. It is for a bathroom rug that will measure 24 by 36 inches. It is crocheted with a double strand of thread, which of...

Hi - A nice use for bits and pieces of left over yarn... is to crochet around wire or plastic hangers. I use a large hook (j or k), double strands of yarn and SC VERY FULL all around. When you have the hanger pretty full it twists around and makes a nice puffy support for knit shirts and even...

OK, Do I win? The fitted Nordic sweater that I knit for my mother when I was in college, (from Nomi's Knits), 20 years ago when I was in college, and she weighed 35 lbs. less - I still have to sew the front binding, sew the buttonholes and the buttons on it. Then again, maybe I'll just frog it...

Wow! That is a long time & a lot of work! Any chance you could make pillows from the squares? Or if they are small, sachets? Karen G. Now I plan to use another 10 years to figure out HOW I can use the finished sqares! LOL! AUD ;-))

I just spent a week with my mother, and she had found a box of "Workbasket" magazines that her mother had saved -- some from the 1940s, some from the 60s, and a few from 1985. I love looking not only at the knitting, crocheting and tatting patterns, but at the ads for dress patterns, the...

What a hoot! Click on all the horses from left to right, then right to left...or just one or two at a time. Sing along if you feel so inclined... :-) http://svt.se/hogafflahage/hogafflaHage_site/Kor/hestekor.swf -- Hugs, Lynn

I can't remember who posted the request for a basic toddler sweater, but I ran across this link when I was doing a search to help out: http://www.junebugsplace.com/surprise.htm HTH, Jenn Homemade Gourmet Sr. Distributor #5528 "Bringing Families Back to the Dinner Table"®

The newer monitors, with the flat screens, are just so much easier on the eyes. I got mine last year for a wedding anniversary present! DH asked me what I wanted, said he was out of ideas but thought I deserved some more jewelry. I said "No, no, I wanna flatscreen" He insisted on getting the...
