It wouldn't come through as a picture. This is a non-binary group.
There are binary newsgroups but the best way is to put it on a blog
and tell us what to type into the browser to see it.


Yes, that's why I use my album. Then I just give the URL, and Bob's your
uncle!

Higs,

Default Whats your choice of needles for socks Aaron Katherine

I am going to try to put the images into my blog and discuss them there as a
reference. But, I have to generate the images first, and that will be a
multi-step process.

The first step is find a bunch of my prototypes to photograph. I can find
swatches and the needles that knit them, but knitting sheaths seem to go
missing. They seem to run faster than knitting needles. I think I leave
them tucked in my belt when I stop knitting, and they fall out somewhere
when I am doing something else. Maybe that is the real purpose for the
chains and hooks on the bottoms of some old knitting sheaths - to chain them
to the knitting so that they do not run off and get lost in the garden or
the market, or the barn or the privy : )

Anyway, I have 3 generations of prototypes on my work bench, and will take
some pictures today.
