It's just that we used to get a really good list of FO's at the end of each month. I have two pairs of favourite socks that I knitted that need to be mended, so maybe I'll do that tonight. ;) Shelagh |

I've decided to frog one so I consider it to be over, one is almost finished bar the last little sleeve so I consider that almost a FO, the rest all have plenty of work left to go (sigh). I'm just proud I haven't started anything new in the last 72 hours. However, I have been sorting and storing my collection of vintage patterns like a demon. The spare bed is now mostly uncovered and all my knitting stuff (bar a little bit of wool) is in one room. I've got sorted file boxes and folders and a filing draw of patterns by publisher. I've set up a wee office for myself and it's such a cool creative space I'm sure I'll be much more organised in future (stop laughing). Now I reackon I'm one bookcase away from having a proper storage place for everything (provided I never buy another thing). I said stop laughing. VP |

I just took a good knitting book out of the library, and then found out it's out of print. It's called "Beyond Wool" by Candace Eisner Strick. I liked it so much, I wanted to buy it. I did find a used one on Amazon, and the shipping costs are more than twice the cost of the book. The joys of living outside the U.S. Shelagh |

Given that I'm so new here, I don't feel I'm quite entitled to do so, but here goes: Velvet evening bag with stump work embroidery (although the chain shoulder strap still needs to be put on permanently - not sure yet how I'll do that), Hand tailored blazer from Indian silk, needs button hole and a button and then to have the tailor's tacks removed, Cotton knitted T in lace pattern, Pair of socks. Currently spinning dog hair (Maremma) with Alpaca to make a Beanie for a neighbour. |

Frog means to rip out your knitting: Rip it Rip it sounds like what a
frog says. Hesira On Nov 3, 10:01 pm, "vanmier" vanmier AT peoplepc DOT com wrote: I have seen this term used twice and I am still new to all the needlework jargon, so please forgive me for asking...but what does "frog" mean? Christy |
