All,

What's a father to do when his daughter works sooooo hard to create a
brand newknittingblog...and nobody has come to visit it yet? Of
course it's wonderful and you all should go check it out.

She is a recent college grad with a math major who would "like to
publish a math paper on the "knittability" of topological surfaces. "
Don't ask me what it means but I'm sure you will all appreciate it.
Sweaters, socks, handwarming creatures...

Check it out and if you want to be really nice....leave her a comment.

Regards,
Proud Dad

cross posting is frowned upon on most of usenet.
i'll leave the multiple groups this time only so those who read this wont do
it in future.

I haven't gone to the blog, but I keep wondering if she has a lot of ads
on there where she gets money for every time someone visits.

I don't see a single ad on the page. Now, I do use AdBlockPlus with my
Firefox, so, I can't swear that there aren't any without looking at page
source, which I'm not going to do.

It is a nice knitting blog, IMNSHO. Rather refreshingly plain layout,
no fancy HTML stuff, nice clear pictures of works in progress or
finished. She does some recycling (actually reusing) of old yarn gotten
by frog-stitching old sweaters, which I think is good. She has some
very intricate lace knitting she's working on....all in all, I enjoyed
the page.

Glad to pass it on. I appreciate a nicely done page, one that doesn't
give me a headache, but does show me something that a real person is
doing, with some indication of the personality behind the page. I like
knitting, and have been doing it in one form or another since I taught
myself in high school. I have gotten a little carried away, and have a
few knitting machines, including 2 1/2 sock machines, and a lot of yarn
that I need to rehome. Or trash. Some isn't really in good enough
condition to use. Pages like this one give me a little push to get on
with it. Not that I actually have, you understand...I'm just feeling
the push. ;-)

You should now see the problems with ignorant posters who cross post -
it has nothing to do with our interests and we are getting all your
posts. I have broad band but do know friends on dial up and it is a
great pain and expense to them to download dross that holds no
interest for them !

So if you want to continue blessing this stupid father, take the cross
posting out and send it ONLY to your own group.


Excuse me, darlin', but which group is it that is yours?
