Be assured any knitting advice I have is heading your way - though beware - I'm on a heck of a steep learning curve myself!Taniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17520680195281725886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8324599736535364840.post-85279515312364492092009-03-23T21:59:00.000+11:002009-03-23T21:59:00.000+11:00Aaahh, I've been meaning to email you!! I was at W...Aaahh, I've been meaning to email you!! I was at Winterwood the other day and there was a brochure on the shelf for beginner knitters - I think it was a 4 or 6 week course - could be good for meeting other local beginner knitters too. I have another friend who is interested, and I think I would be too as I only have very basic skills. Anyway I will try to remember to grab a brochure on Wednesday when I'm down that way and scan it and email you : )<BR/><BR/>Until then, the basic instructions that I use can be found here http://www.theyarnco.com/slip_knot.php<BR/><BR/>chat soon, Jo xJohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00187085163513906952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8324599736535364840.post-36246412739084276932009-03-23T18:55:00.000+11:002009-03-23T18:55:00.000+11:00I used to knit a lot. But when I went to Singapore...I used to knit a lot. But when I went to Singapore, there was no need for warm clothing, so I stopped, But the skill is still there.<BR/><BR/>The other day, my 20 year old daughter decided to knit a scarf. I left her to knit for one month, and there was no progress. <BR/><BR/>One day, I looked at it, there were so many holes, and the tension was all different. She wasn't home, and I decided to help her, and started on the other end of the ball. Eventually in one evening, I managed to undo her knitted end.<BR/><BR/>She came home, and said," Mum, you are such a perfectionist, you undid what I took a month to do." Ungrateful girl.<BR/><BR/>Enjoy your knitting for your little ones.Ann, Chen Jie Xue 陈洁雪https://www.blogger.com/profile/04399207312968010460noreply@blogger.com
