Query about a BOOK
"knittingand" wrote in message ups.com... No worries Noreen, my site is blocked a lot by software that blocks all pagan & gay sites cos I'm pagan and I have a link to the glbt knitters website :-P My old website used to get blocked just because I once mentioned that a friend of mine is Wiccan! Yeesh, Sarah, that shouldn't be a problem on my end, as I visit many gay sites and Wiccan sites. I guess I *thought* maybe YOU had blocked me via my ISP number. (which is why I said I didn't blame you!) I'll try again later. Noreen |

Query about a BOOK
On Sat, 19 Nov 2005 15:12:58 -0600, Spike Driver
spewed forth : It is meant more for the person that want to learn how to take the gauge and measure to find the number of stitches for the parts needed to make the style of sweater they want. PGR also provides basic construction techniques for about 12 different sweater styles plus brief history of same, touches on yarn types suitable for different sweaters (Salish-style sweaters call for vastly different yarn than your typical Swedish or Norwegian, for example), and even provides some information on spinning your own yarn. So yep, its a book for people who want to build their own without benefit of all the "designer" patterns, but it certainly isn't a simple book +++++++++++++ Reply to the list as I do not publish an email address to USENET. This practice has cut my spam by more than 95%. Of course, I did have to abandon a perfectly good email account... |
