That explains it!

I've always wanted to go to the Vogue thing. So jealous. Was it amazing? Did you spend so much money you had to hitch-hike home?!

It was Pretty Great. The Class I took -Double Knitting was very cool . The Market Place was Great vendors from all over the world.Yarn that I saw, probably will never see again. Bought tons. Had a real problem with the Hilton- the venue.Do love Maine though I have been to Acadia several times . Stitches in Hartford CT is very nice also It is in October.

I hadn't heard of Stitches. I will have to look into that.

I saw this today & thought you ladies would laugh like I did. The man of the house did NOT see the "funny".

sock question... I knit on 4 douple pointed needles cuf down but I always get "stripes" from where the stitches transfer from one needle to the next. how do I get rid of those lines? I really hate knitting socks with circular needles. Thanks!

 

[queenchick16]

I;m not sure of the question but maybe you aren't pulling the yarn tight enough between the needles . Although you shouldn't have to pull it very tight.Good luck

Here are my chickens. They were knitted then felted.

Caat,
Those are called 'ladders' and are caused by the stitches between your needles being too loose. A couple stitches before the end of the needle and the couple stitches at the beginning of the needle, give a little tug on the working yarn to snug these stitches up.

Just finished a pair of socks for DH today. A simple stockinette stitch and an after thought heel. They were supposed to be for Valentine'd Day, but he immediately put them on. Cuts down on wrapping paper, I guess!
