Anyone else knit feverishly during the debate last night? I went down to a local restaurant where there was a debate party of sorts (I don't have a TV) and got...
YES!!! Actually, what I was doing during the dabate was furiously seaming, and I've finally got Klaralund finished to my satisfaction. A very boring picture is...
Wish I could seam and watch tv because that is exactly what I need to do! Thought I would seam the body and my one finished sleeve to determine if that one is...
Great job! I'm impressed that you were able to seam while watching, that I can't do (horrible seamstress). Vicky ... and I've finally ... there this weekend...
I started feeling like I was wasting an enormous amount of my precious time and it was just too easy to sit like a blob in front of the tube. And I don't...
Morning! Stupid user question. Has anyone tried knitting the sleeves backwards, that is from the neck down, to try and get a custom sleeve length without...
I had to change the length considerably because I have very short arms. I think I took out around 3 to 3.5 inches. I figured the measurements out by measuring...
I will be out of the office starting 10/01/2004 and will not return until 10/18/2004. I will respond to your message when I return. If you need immediate ...
I just wanted to share my tale of woe with some people who would understand. I took Klara on a business trip with me yesterday--a quick trip from my home in...
I am so, so sorry. I will spare you my trying to dredge up some chipper philosophical words about journey and process, and just say again- I am so sorry....
EEEK! That is really awful. I feel your pain, though. I didn't lose any knitting, but on a recent flight from San Francisco to L.A., I left a carry on piece...
Hi Jeannine. I'm so glad you got your bag back! Unfortunately, the very first thing I did was to go to the airline lost bag department, as I had been ...

First, Cate, that is awful about your sweater piece. So Sorry. Having frogged an entire sweater (after I seamed it and weaved in the ends) and now having to go...
You absolutely have my full sympathy. Bummer! Hope you can get the remaining yarn you need to finish it up... Vicky Only 1/2 of back done, finishing up other...
Although I have several projects inthe works, Christams presents in planning stages - I could no longer resist the call of Klaralund!! I swatched today, got...
Get the book with the pattern in it, get the yarn, swatch the hell out of it, read the errata, and have fun. :) ... From: giali76 <giali76@...> Date:...
Hi everybody, I finished the back yesterday, and was amazed at how tiny it looks! I am making the extra small, as I have a 34 chest and am fairly petite. Now...
Thanks for your quick reply. I did swatch, and I was fine. I haven't yet blocked. Should I do that with each piece before seaming? Sorry for all the...
Hi Vicky, I think you're doing well -- look at the width of the piece, not the height, as the height will go about half up your chest. I gave myself 4" of...
Thanks, Jenifer. It is actually the width that I'm concerned about. But maybe it looks narrow because, as others have said, I haven't blocked it yet and the...
I also did that. About the blocking. I did block every piece, but you don't have to do them one at a time. I did the front and back, and then the two sleeves...
Monica, I went home for lunch, and compared my sweater back to another that I wear all the time, and it looks spot on. So thanks for your advice! OK, I'll shut...
I lied - I have one more bit of thanks to give. I'm thankful for the advice someone posted about "split splicing". I had never heard of that before and did it...
