Default I'm trying knitting sheaths

Dear friends,

I am going to try knitting sheaths. The speed Aaron has talked about in
the group has enticed me in to giving and all out try.

I will keep the group informed. I enjoy the continental way of knitting
at this time, the only way I have ever knitted. It is the way I learned
back about 25 years ago.

I enjoy the Sweater Machine for fast stockinette sweaters. It is a
blessing for a sweater or lap throw for a fast gift. What really makes
me feel good is people still ask me if I knitted it by hand. One of my
knitting friends questioned me once once a sweater I knitted by hand.
She is about 20 years older than me and informed me she had knitted
since she was a child and that that sweater was knitted on a machine.
Thank God, she trusted Gail.

I do not think I will give up double point needles for socks, I believe
you can you use the knitting sheath with them if they are the same size.
Maybe Aaron can ad lib on this.

If any of you decide on a sheath project, please post you progress and
ideas.

Hugs & God bless,
Dennis & Gail
