I understand how to knit and purl but am kind of confused when it comes to "working with the wrong side of work facing you". Sounds like a silly question but I am not quite sure on how this should be done properly.

Anyone here from Demark or some how connected to Denmark? I want sites to go to for patterns. Thanks everyone, Carol In WI

Hi all, Does anyone have any tips for knitting up stitches neatly? I've always struggled with this round necklines in particular. The instruction: "pick up and knit x stitches round neck" is always one I dread. :) Happy New Year everyone, VP

Good Morning, I purchased yarn on Ebay to make an afghan for my dil. I have run out and do not want to complete this as is. She, the seller, is no longer listing items. It is such an old yarn that Coats and Clark and Herrshners do not have even record of its existence. My thought is that it is not...
