About Me:
I learned to knit as a kid but did not keep up with it. When my mother passed away more than 12 years ago, I didn't want our family tradition of her knitted Christmas stockings to go by the wayside. So I picked up knitting again and became addicted to it.
What's your Ravelry ID (if you have one)? (www.ravelry.com)
Irene, everything is fine with me. Hope all is well with you. I'm about halfway finished with the Hemlock though I am thinking about doing the feather and fan a little bit wider. Hope your hat is coming along for the DH.
I have looked at how beautiful the Hemlock shawl is, to think it looks like it started as a doily, right now cast on a hat for dh should not take too long she sa id with her fingers cr ossed LOL hope all is great with you and knitting happily. hugs Irene
Hi Cheryl, shawls were being made in a triangle, but the ladies in the homes and shut ins said they were always sitting on them ,so the narrow scarfs came to be, are you staying warm, sure is nasty weather, but good compared to some, so should not complain, Take care Hugs Irene
Have been clearing up my yarn closet, some I will try and use as scarfs, so put some of those in those large 2 gallon bags, and will try and keep them from going to the bottom, they are good , even for the shut ins , we can make them just a little wider,but not so they can sit on them, Hugs Irene
Hi Cheryl, am I behind the times, Peggy is going to have a new one to, how wonderful, both her and Susan, we are going to see some interesting knitting from both of them, as is already Susan's blanket is beautiful, Just cruiseing along today, on the knitting , cleaning a closet,and then stopped. knitting now looks really good, Hugs, Irene
Thankyou so much for suggesting I watch the video It really helped now I think I know what I am suppose to do. Happy knitting hope we can keep in touch. Liz C.
Hi Cheryl just wondered if you have ever done a provisional cast on using the crochet chain method I just don"t understand how you pick up the stiches from let to right on the chain or would i be doing it wrong? I'm getting frustrated with this. Love your work and thanks for replying so quickly!!!! Your baby surprise jacket looks awesome. Liz C.
