I have this really strange (or so I'm told) way of knitting - I tuck the needle under my arm. The right needle. In fact, now I come to think of it, it may be both, but I'd have to knit something to be sure. This means I need really long needles in order to be comfortable. I've been complimented many times on the neatness of my knitting, and it may be this habit that makes it so even. I also have to use one size larger than the needles recommended in any pattern, as I kit quite tightly - again, probably because of this habit of mine. Catherine It isn't that strange, it is the way I was taught to knit, as a girl in the north of England. Everyone there used to knit that way. Although, I tend to be a more loose knitter and usually have to use needles two sizes smaller than the pattern recommends. When I started using circular needles, I found I can only use them by knitting Continental fashion, with the wool held in my left hand. Olwyn Mary n New Orleans. |

Did anyone get any stitching related gifts this holiday season? I had sent DD a link to several things I liked at Nordic Needle and she got me almost ALL of them!!! The best is a purple bead and silver Kitty scissor fob and matching counting pin :-). There were also several leather sleeves for the ends of scissors and also some of the plastic point protectors I can use when I make my own beaded "do-hickeys" as gifts for my friends.

They were always nice to deal with. Ellice |
