I decided since I wasn't sure whom I was giving it to, that I would just leave it blank for now. Later duplicate some designs on.<br>I think the charting is a...
Hi again..<br>I've put a few pics up of certain parts of the first strip.. Please don't laugh at my pic taking ability..(ok, you can laugh, just not too ...
Wow! That is so neat that you all can post pictures in an album. I'll be looking forward to seeing more. Unfortunately, I can't get started until I finish the...
Has anyone decided whether to use the selvedge stitch and the modified seam as you go introduced by Colleen in the panel panache article? or are you going to ...
Hi Lea-Ann,<br>I was going to do the seam as you go, but decided that I would just do an invisible seam as I really do like handwork and with the different...
Hi everyone, I'm new to the club, and a very inexperienced machine knitter, with NO handknitting skills. I probably won't be knitting along with you all for a...
Hi Everyone,<br><br>Just wanted to drop in and see what y'all are up to :) I hadn't seen the pattern you're using for this knit along and I had to join up to ...
Just getting started on the blanket. Could not find Encore near me and didn't want to wait while I ordered some on line. Used Caron Cuddle Soft and a Brother...
Hi: Does anyone else need to set up a timeline to start moving forward on this project? This weekend is shot for me due to the Harlan Days festival and picking...
Can you believe, I forgot how to do fair-isle on the Bond, and sold my manual with my machine? Could someone give me the hand-manipulatd directions,please. TIA...
Thank you and I am happy to be with all of you. At the moment I am knitting on the LK-140 and I am saving for the new Bond which is coming out. I do not have...
I do not have Bond Collection 26. I go from 20 and then I have 28 and 30. 26 I did not get and I mush have missed seeing it on Lea-Ann's page. I do have two of...
I plan to start on strip #1 tomorrow. I did a sample square using some left over yarn to see how things would go. I ordered the Encore from Lea-Ann and I'm...
I just finished reading all of the posts and have a few questions. I want to know why you wouldn't convert the stitches for the moss stitch on a row by row ...
Hi Alice; I knew I had some unanswered questions, but have switched from using Pegasus to Outlook and haven't figured out how to import all of my unanswered ...
Could some kind person on this list please send me a short description on how to do fair-isle on the Bond? I tried it about 2 yrs ago, found it not too ...
Hi Ruth: Fair Isle is usually two colors, the contrast color (cc) and the main color (mc). The cc needles are pulled all the way forward, toward you, into ...
Thank you so much! I remember that now. This time I'll write it down and hope I don't forget where I wrote it!! If it weren't time to make dinner, I would try...
I decided to join also - albeit a little late. I still have to finish my lace stole currently nesting on the machine - but then I'm free to jump right on in. I...
I just joined the list and got the magazine from <br>Leanne. This particular issue is full of nice projects! Anyway, I just bought a second Bond so I could...
lamknits,<br><br>I'm trying the multiple latch tool on the #26 blanket. So far I'm only using two latches. I will graduate to more as I gain confidence. I can...
My progress so far has not been good. I found that the Fair Isle heart,graph 18, had floats that were too long. My next try may be Intarasia on the hearts with...
Hi: Could you elaborate more on where the floats are? Did you perhaps continue the main color across the cc behind the heart? I would recommend doing the ...
God gave me the gift of patience, but He is testing me on these hearts. Yes, Lea-Anne, I did do the first Fair Isle with all the cc going across the heart. ...
I just finished strip 1. Doing the hearts in fair isle is quite a challenge. I am pleased with the way it turned out and I'm excited about the next strip. But...
After letting strip 1 rest for the night and most of the day I decided I did not like the way the hearts looked with the fair isle technique so I frogged the...
Alice, you make me feel much better about my Fair Isle floats. I carried them up the back on my swatch but they did show through on the other side. It is ...
Hi guys: I would really recommend putting a separate bobbin on each side of the heart for the main color. Then you won't have the float problem. Has anyone...
Thanks Lea-Ann for the hint. You probably mentioned them before but I didn't pay attention. I have already started over and am about half finished with strip 1...
Another possibility is to short row these sections. At camp, Jennie Merritt showed us how to add in another color using short rows. We did a diamond motif in ...
