I admire you with only two projects OTN - I have two that are close to being done, three single socks that have pairs in the just cast on stage, two shawls I want to get back to, and three sweaters I'm pretending I didn't start. <br /><br />And that's not even mentioning the lace yarn DH bought me on this trip, I'm thinking Anne's faroese shawl from the last twist, the ice themed one - so pretty! <br /><br />Anyway - go you!

Found the technique in Modular Knitting or some other book concerned with same. Title fails me, but the author was male and teutonic. Check it out; it is probably on YouTube. It is a little fiddly at first, but as one gets the hang of it, like many things, it becomes second nature.<br /><br />When I was but a wee thing, my dad brought home an empty hummingbird nest. He placed a silver dollar inside, just barely, to show us just how small it was.FUZZARELLYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12340378858926874634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3105432749747104284.post-10204980112607968392009-05-29T11:46:28.369-07:002009-05-29T11:46:28.369-07:00AH....so THAT's why I just got 3 messages back "Ma...AH....so THAT's why I just got 3 messages back "Mail: COULD NOT BE DELIVERED"<br />and why I haven't heard from you about the fabric photos I sent (you didn't get them)<br />(sigh)<br />I will pm you on Ravelry...and post the photos to my flickr account?<br />(((Hugs)))Nana Sadiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13337300042637714815noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3105432749747104284.post-78232419013178902592009-05-29T10:51:57.377-07:002009-05-29T10:51:57.377-07:00I pulled out my spindle last night for a few minut...I pulled out my spindle last night for a few minutes. I think I need to work on making the yarn bulkier again, so I can use all the bits and bobs together.<br /><br />Sweater is absolutely lovely! Perhaps the child will be named William, and there you go. I love the colours. I'd like that sweater, well maybe a bit different, for me. And isn't it funny the little things that block us from finishing something off. I've got some mitts drying, and I'd like to colourful them up with some embroidery. Not sure if I'll actually do it. I have a couple of weeks to think about it.Gwenhttp://laflaka.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3105432749747104284.post-79465326460632531482009-05-29T10:49:58.003-07:002009-05-29T10:49:58.003-07:00I just love that baby cardigan.
