    Yep, you know. Do a test swatch....and another. I almost started it once and did 3 test swatches. Then I wasn't sure about the yarn I had and I chickened out. I will do it. I would worry if it was too big because I'm short and I don't want to swim in it. In Ravelry....the site I got it...

    You take a deep breath....then just take a line at a time. I don't know if I could do all that yet. My problem is that I'm not good at sewing or dress making, so getting the sleeves sized right and then sewn in....it might not fit after all that knitting. And you can't do it with just any...

    Tink is knit spelled backwards. So forward is knit....backward is tink. I didn't think it up. Its language the knitters use. Yeah....wish I understood all that. I read and watch videos and read some more. I've learned alot, but still basically lost when they talk like that. I wish I...

    Yeah. They need prayers. Kon was saying he was sick. Haven't seen Rave for a bit. I think she said Blue was on the mend but he wouldn't be here like before. Whatever happened to Holly? I enjoyed her posts. She was such a bubbly person. Hope she is ok wherever she is.

    Nice! Plus its nice to have something for years that has been passed down. I have a shawl from my great grandmother. I remember when I was a little girl visiting her and it was always on the back of her rocking chair. I don't use it, it's put away, but it's nice to have something that was...

    Depends on how long has passed and what you knew to begin with, tho I think. I learned when I was 8 and picked it up again in my 50s. I knew how to cast on, cast off and knit and purl......that was it. Oh, and I could make slippers. My aunt had taught me how to make slippers and I think we...

    When I need to rip out stitches I "tink". You just go backwards one stitch at a time. I can't take it off the needles, rip it out, and put it back on. I'd get lost that way, too. Tinking takes awhile but you keep hold of the stitches. And it depends on how complicated the pattern is...

    I wish I understood more about electric things and such. I'd love to be able to make my own "battery & carto box"....box mod??? I'm trying to learn. Was looking at those vamo things. But I already have VV with my batteries. If I need more power I just screw off the 78 and put on the X2...

    Its funny....I want to learn how to crochet and I find it more confusing. People that knit think crochet is hard and people that crochet think knitting is hard. I can't really learn from a book. I need to see the person doing it. If you want to know how to do a stitch there are tons of how...

    I knit. I learned as a little girl and just in the past few years I wanted to pick it up again....so with help from the internet (lots of how to videos) I've been knitting again. My goal was a drawer full of hand knitted socks. Don't have a drawful yet, but I have about 9 pairs. It started...

    A Gallon!! I don't think you'll need that much!! I thought that's what it meant to Skype.....be on camera face to face. We've done it with my daughter. Can you Skype text like we do in the forum? Yeah but what they paid for them back then was alot compared to their salaries. We get...

    Needs sweetener. I've been messing around with that. The DIY threads say you can kill the flavor if you add too much. I tried a little and a lot of sweetener....I like sweet anyway, and must have added too much because I didn't notice it being sweeter with more. Smelled nice, tho. I have...

    Yeah I had a problem with my first X2, too. Actually the replacement had a problem, too, but Heather kept working with me and finally pulled its final replacement out of the box and tested it for a day to make sure it was good. It's still going good. You know tho, my lastest lime green one is...

    Well I would say with the exception of the Volt products. A couple of my little 78s are just now starting to lose power. Only lasting 2 hours now, instead of 4 or 5. 6 months old. Still working, tho. Good products.

    I was looking it up and we must have posted back to back. :laugh: I know I like to watch House Hunters International and wonder what it would be like to just pick up and live in another country. Would be an adventure that's for sure.
