What I Did at School Today

I finally finished the 9-patch dishcloth, but I’m still having trouble with my SSK (Slip, slip, knit) decreases. I tried all the methods I saw on Knittinghelp.com, but nothing seemed to make any real difference. I must be doing something wrong; I know they won’t look just like the knit 2 together decrease, but mine [...]

My secret pal came through for me big time. I have no clue who she is, but I got a third package yesterday that rocked just as much as the other two. She sent me the above banana silk yarn in that awesome green. It rocks. And it’s so timely. The toddler has [...]
