Hello there, Knitsters!
It’s been a long time since any of the Knitsters have written here. Well, we do have a life outside of knitting, ‘ya know. All of us have kept in contact with each other through email, Twitter, LiveJournal and Facebook. Helen even came to visit Dani for a day over the summer [...]

Hello KNITSTER fans!
We’re all still here, just very busy with life and knitting, of course. I have put down the lace and the socks in favor of getting some holiday knitting done. Since I know none of the recipients are reading, I am in the process of making 3 scarves and a bunch [...]

One thing I’ve always enjoyed when I have the opportunity to visit my local IKEA store is that they always have a display out (or at least this past year they have) of a makeshift yarn store, and how you can use various shelving and office furniture that they have for such a business setup. [...]

I don’t know about Xiane or Pickleboot, but one thing I know that Helen and I have in our many commonalities is a love for British comediennes, French and Saunders.  Heaven knows Helen and I both love Ab Fab, and I know that Helen is big for the Vicar of Dibley. The last thing I [...]

Do you remember when, not too long ago, I posted a few finished things, which included Oceandirt’s Mittens? (Her mittens are the very first photo in the post.) Well, I finally got my buttocks into gear, and finally mailed them to her. While she lives relatively closeby (maybe a half hour away), my schedule has [...]

I was reading one of my most favorite websites/blogs,Project RunGay with those lovely boys, Tom and Lorenzo, and after writing them an email note about getting their view on why Christian has been the bridesmaid but not the bride on the last two challenges, when I started thinking about one of their new neighbors and [...]

Happy New Year everyone! I hope it was good for everyone.
Knitting played a good part in my bringing in the new year this year. We often spend hours on end at my husband’s cousin’s house, and after a while, you get bored hanging around, and I’m not exactly always into the drinking and dancing (I [...]

Well, a few weeks ago, I was wondering what all the fuss was about Ravelry. Now, I get it.
It’s an overwhelming site, to be honest. I can see why people want to join, and why it takes a while to get on, from a programming perspective! When I saw the previews they post about the [...]
