I just found out what purl is in knitty.
It came from posting on a newsgroup doesn't need an email address to respond
to. It only attracts spam, which I don't want. -Cozy http://blogs.delphiforums.com/n/blog...g=cozy_at_home Happiness doesn't come from having things, it comes from *having things you can find* "Mirjam Bruck-Cohen" wrote in message ...

Mirjam, if you look at my post you will see the whole original post is
quoted under my comment. I love the show Knitty Gritty, but it is very true that they often assume the audience already knows something and may make comments or even be demonstrating something where they say one thing and do another because they think you are just following them so easily. I'm guessing they worded themselves in such a way that made it sound like doing 2 stitches is what made it the purl, when they really just meant that they were purling and it would just happen to be 2 stitches that time. One time that drives me wild to even think about it, the guest who was demo'ing some simple stitch, was working furiously while saying she was just simply knitting (or purling, can't remember) and that time the red headed gal did chirp in and say, "she's just turning her stitches as she goes because they were on backward". I was really glad they did that because she was removing each from the needle with the other needle and turning it and putting it back on and working the stitch, all without really saying she was doing more than just knitting or purling, which would be very confusing for newbies watching. I had to wonder why someone would show up with demo pieces that had the stitches on backward and why they couldn't have just stopped taping, let her fix it, and started taping again, instead of showing her feverishly turning them and passing it off as just regular knitting or purling. At other times I've seen them say something simple they were doing but they were really doing more and acting like everyone just already knew that. BUT, I have picked up many tips from watching that show, even on items I hated, there are little tricks that they might use that are great to see. But I don't think it's that great to try to learn to knit from scratch from the show, a good book from the store or library on basic stitches is pretty important if you can't watch the videos available on the net. I was trying to make a sock and my book directions went awful, but I followed some instructions I saw on the show and it's the only reason I was able to finish it. -- -Cozy http://blogs.delphiforums.com/n/blog...g=cozy_at_home Happiness doesn't come from having things, it comes from *having things you can find* "Mirjam Bruck-Cohen" wrote in message ...

Cozy to start with , i have no idea what this shows or programs are i
never saw any of them . But i was mystified how one can say purl meand make to together When i teach i explain to pupils that knit looks like a V while purl looks a bit like a pearl ,,never having seen any of such programs i had to grin at your description , In Israel i know the Lady BATYA UZIEL , who for years had a `handcraft program in the children` s program. Everybody knows her by sight , and every second person , when meeting her says ;"I happened to prepare the fa finnished item , so that you can see how it will look!!!" Which was her most used sentence . But to clarify it all i was amazed from where the idea came ,,,, now i know thanks to You and Noreen explaining it to me . As you might remember 1 month ago i was busy Staying alive , between rockets , and runnin to and from the shelter . And didn`t read all posts. mirjam |

Mirjam, I haven't looked at this group or any other for so long I can't even
remember how long. I've been off newsgroups for awhile, but got bored and lonely and decided to check them out again. So, I didn't even notice how old the post was that I answered. I'm surprised it still showed, as my news server has a nasty idea that a few days is good enough to keep and deletes others way too early. I'm so glad to hear you are safe, it must have been awful during the bad times in Israel. Stay safe and keep on knitting! -- -Cozy http://blogs.delphiforums.com/n/blog...g=cozy_at_home Happiness doesn't come from having things, it comes from *having things you can find* "Mirjam Bruck-Cohen" wrote in message ...

Hi Cozy, the original post was on Sept. 7 so wasn't really very old.
