Update on the Hanami Shawl
"Shillelagh" wrote ... "Ande" wrote ... Hi, I'm new here and just love this shawl! It looks a bit tough for me, but I can dream and drool . Where did you get your stitch markers - they're lovely! Hi Ande, and welcome! Thanks for your nice comments. A friend from Australia sent the stitch markers to me in a knitting buddy exchange. I agree with you, they are beautiful. Aren't they just ? and by coincidence, I happened to be passing the craft magazine section in a Newsagent ( my feet lead me astray ) and 'Simply Knitting' had a set of 6 stitch markers as a freebie )) -- Regards..............P-f |

I laughed and laughed, even tho it HURT my sciatica, but OMG, that was TOO Funny! Although knitting bandages isn't really SO far-out! Noreen Hey, I used to do that. A church women's group in Ohio used to knit bandages for a leper hospital in either India or Africa, I'm not sure which. Anyhow, it was dead easy, "idiot knitting" some of us called it. Takre a ball of bedspread cotton and size #1 needles. Cast on 30 stitches. Knit every row until either halfway through the ball or to the end. Cast off. Apparently they liked the hand knit ones because they were more flexible, and being made of bedspread cotton they could be boiled to sterilise them, and re-used until they literally fell apart. Some of our older women made themselves do fifteen minutes every morning on their bandages to keep (or get!) their fingers moving.

I loved the cat in the sink! Where on earth do you find a cat that wouldn't
mind a bath? ROFLMAO!!! "Shillelagh" wrote in message ... Hi Everyone It seems to be kind of quiet here these days. Maybe a let down from the Christmas holiday rush?

Here's a link to have a look if you'd like: http://tinyurl.com/yusn2v I hope the link works, I'm still getting used to Photobucket. ;) Shelagh |

It will be gorgeous when finished. Question for you: I was in my LYS recently and saw they were holding a class for a knit Potato Chip Scarf with a bead knit cast-off. Have you or anyone on the group seen a pattern for a scarf done this way? thanks, Linda D. in B.C., Canada |

Tiki is the name of my calico! She isn't of the water-loving mind, though.
Or the nail trimming, or the loving on anyone but me. But WOW does she ever love all over me! I wasn't even in the market for a cat when I walked past the window of adoptees at Petsmart (all are from local animal shelters). She just seemed to NEED me, and I've loved her ever since. When I adopted her, she was a year old and had been in the shelter for at least 3 months. Best way to have a cat find you, IMHO. "enigma" wrote in message . ..
