Wretched Excess, and String the knitting Thing

[Cynthia]

I'll have to pull out my books and knitting supplies sometime and give a hat a try to see if I can work up to something like that. They'd probably also go a little quicker than the long scarves and blanket I was working on when I got burned out and bored.

Thanks for the tips

Giant oatmeal cookies with butter, honey, and cinnamon on top are nice too..., but I don't think you can knit those.

Um... I'll just hop back over here and dive in my hole before String picks me up by the ears. EEK!

String, Those hose's are absolutely amazing!!! I believe AlanH will wear them for a week straight once they arrive.

I may hit you up for a pair of those for myself.

I agree! My mama taught me to knit, now I knit better than her. I would be happy to teach Yeti to knit, he is unwilling to try because he expected to be a master at it on the first go.

My great-grandmother taught me to knit (and crochet) when I was about 6 or 7. I think I may need to pick it up again. Your work is amazing. I think, though, I may need to start on something simpler.

They would be quite stinky.

Feel free to PM me if you want to know all the details

Make that 25 rows left. I did a repeat of the cable pattern just now (only took over an hour to do) and perhaps I will do the last later, or tomorrow.
