Did everyone have delicious fruit cake? What's your favorite Christmas Movie?

@Sheila Sakraida Oh dear. Glad you are on the mend though. Cracked ribs are no joke...

@Sheila Sakraida Yes, I just started the pattern. I watched Sally Melville's class on intarsia a while back. So far, so good.

@Kim Doherty-Smith  Have you started the intarsia on Rein yet?   Is this intarsia knit the Arne and Carlos way with the intarsia yarn knit together with the background yarn?  &n...

@Carol Spence Hi Carol, for the ladie's size, I used about 1.5 skeins and for the men's size almost 2 skeins. I tried using up some stashed Selkirk Worsted that I had, 1 colour for the cuffs a...

@Susan Clouston I love your flip mittens!  I'm about to order the pattern and my first Fleece and Harmony yarn.  How much of the Selkirk Worsted did you use to knit a pair?  Thanks!

@Kim Doherty-Smith thanks, Kim.  I didn't see a size either.  I had a no. Thinking day yesterday.  I didn't get much knit.  I didn't tell the forum , that I cracked ribs 3 ...

@Sheila Sakraida They don't give the pompom size in the pattern. I guess they want you to make whatever size suits your fancy!

@Kim Doherty-Smith Is anyone knitting projects from any of the Saltwater Knits book?   Christmas Day I cast on the tea cozy from the Saltwater Gifts book.   I am knitting it with lef...

@Kim Doherty-Smith I am so happy knitting with the Eldon Lace.  I am fan girl gushing!   I am on the fifth color repeat.  Soon I'll be changing to the black and silver again. &n...

@Sheila Sakraida Ohhhh KSH Glamour sounds like it would have been fun!

The lighter pink/mauve color is KSH Glamour.   It has little tiny sequins on yarn.   Two of the yarns are the same base as KSH but a different company.   I love the black with the si...

@Kim Doherty-Smith Here's an in progress shot.   I have knit the green area and am working towards the purple stripe.   

@Sheila Sakraida Great! So nice to hear that the Eldon Lace is a good substitute in the pattern. Can't wait to see your project with the alternative colours. I am sure you will post a picture...right?

@Sarah Hmmmm... yes. I think what you are describing is the hallmark of an organization that stagnants and ultimately doesn't have a lot of success. Can't comment on the US education system, but i...

@Kim Doherty-Smith I bought 9 skeins of Signature yarn in Blankie for a sweater out of the current Rowan magazine.   My magazine has never arrived from England.   I have contact...
