Welcome to the group! I just delurked myself not long ago. It is a very
warm and caring group of people that I am enjoying getting to know. . . and
the 6x6 exchange is a blast! Hope you'll sign up for it next month!

Hello Group,

I have been here all the time but have spent the last 2 weeks reading and
learning about this wonderful community. You do "post" a lot, and I only
have a few hours after work to sit at my computer!!

I have many questions which will all come out in due course, but right now I
need to know what all the initials mean:-
FO - when talking about WIP projects
DH, DS, SO etc - when talking about people
and the BIG ONE....
How do you Hand Knit???
Not really . I haven't hand knitted for about 25 years, but I'm sure it
will come back to me when I find some needles!

I have been machine knitting since 1971, but I don't think that will be
suitable for 6x6 (too fiddly).
Cross-stitch is my portable craft - I used to use it to pass the time during
the flights to New York to see my Mom. But ever since 9/11, UK security will
not allow me to take the sewing needle/scissors on the plane.

Speak to you soon,
Kari (in the UK)

Me?

I've been knitting! I've finished off the jumper that I started in =
February for my husband, Stu. But I'm still working on the photo.=20

I found the double bed sized blanket that I started knitting when I =
joined this newsgroup. Some days I do have silly ideas. I'm knitting it =
in one piece with stripes groing across the bed so I've got my stitches =
on 4 needles which I keep swapping as I go along the row. At this rate =
it will take me a number of years to complete, but what an heirloom eh? =
*lol*

Hi Kari,

Just wanted to pop in and say welcome to you, glad you delurked. Now I heard
something this morning on our local news that the US airlines are now allowing
knitting needles, crochet hooks and clippers on flights. There were other
things mentioned too, but I knew the group would want to know this.

Hugs,

Nora

Waaahoueeeeeeeee! *jumping up and down* I am so happy!

Thanks Nora,
I don't think I'm as "energetic" as Pirjo ROTFL; but that is wonderful
news. Now where's my travel agent - I feel a Cross-Stitch urge coming on -
so need and 8 hour flight.

Hi Kari,

I think you said you flew to NY, well what part of this state as I'm from there
and so is Janise.

Hugs,

Nora

My Mom lives in Parkchester in the Bronx. I try to get there every year.
Normally go early May (our birthdays and Mother's Day are in the same
fortnight).
I haven't made it this year, been to see other family members in other parts
of the world.
