I was tired too and had just come from the mean spirited group called rec.food.cooking. I like the recipes, but quite few posters sure can be unkind over there. This group has always been so nice and I love hearing about your projects. I am not a hand knitter and don't have much to contribute. I'm really enjoying learning how to use my knitting machine though. It is a fun gadget even though it's a bit complicated and takes up so much room. Lynne |

Lynne , this ok , i hope you know already that i am not the insulting
type. And i like this group and the many kind people who post here. My late mother had a Knittax knitting machine , and it made a HUGE noise , when she worked on it , but i have learned to use itas well. My mother became such and expert that she even knitted socks on it. The big `flaw ` she found with it, was the impossibilty of taking it along, to knit with it outside the house ::: she loved knitting on buss rides, in waiting rooms etc... Thus tell us what are you Machine knitting now adays? ps somebody sold me a Knitting frame [machine] , the only good use i found for it was making Shawls and Shrugs . I knit the long rectangle, than knit on in the circular the handcauffs and crochet around the opening. mirjam |

I met a young woman who said she inherited, some boxes of left over
threads, but she had no will nore urge to knit/crochet with them, but would like to make some things with them. She loves to sketch , so i suggested that she sketches some dolls etc and than can glue colored threads over those sketches... mirjam . |
