It is so wonderful to hear from most of the gang, and the projects you are all working on. I hope the others join soon. Thank you Laura for putting this together. I must admit I am not much of a blogger, but I assume that is about to change.
I knit about 4" on the scarf and found I dropped a stitch towards the beginning. Time to rip, as I ripped my yarn knotted. Time to break yarn and start another project. I am using the yak yarn and knitting the Pine Tree Palatine Scarf. The yarn is lovely. I was having difficulty with finding the needles that worked best for me and the yarn. I believe Nan may have just solved my problem. She sent me beautiful rosewood #1 dpn which she affixed the perfect size beads to one end. Thanks Nan:)
I hope you all plan to post pictures, I would love to see your finished work.

Hi Chris!
ReplyDeleteIt's great to hear from you. What a great idea to attach beads to the end of the dbl pointed needles! I'm going to try that. Of course I had those wonderful needles I bought from George and Galina and have already broke one, (I think that's the theme for our group), and cannot find where I stashed the spares... I am dying to get back to work so I think today it's either find them or buy a new set!
It's a rainy day here in northern Minnesota and tomorrow we're supposed to have a couple of inches of snow. I'm planning on getting together with Kathy M soon...maybe we'll have to head back up to the scene of the crime and knit with Judy. Hope you are all well.
