Hello, I think this Saturday will be a knitting meet-up. I will not be there; I am off to Minnesota again, this time to help move my aunt from the extended...
I am planning to be at WP this Saturday. I will have the forms for new/renew memberships for TKGA at the (slightly) discounted rate of $25, if anyone wants...
I'm planning to be there. I got my days all confused. I though this was the noon meeting this week. Glad you mentioned the Perk or I'd be hanging out at your...
Oh, good! I'm glad you're coming. Or at least planning to come. And I'm glad I mentioned WP. Gotta spell things out for these new mothers who have lots on...
Hey ladies... Last year I bought what I thought was a very nice wool cardigan from Banana Republic. Two things: it is getting pilled all over and Mirabella...
My very first knitting teacher (her name was Annie Hall!) said that she NEVER took wool sweaters to the dry cleaner. She handwashed herself them at the end of...
That was garbled. She handwashed THEM herself. Sheez. ... she ... sweater. ... "experts." ... spit ... blade...

Hi Julie, Mary Ellen can describe a very good washing method. It involves putting the it item in a pillow case and putting a tight knot in the case so that...
I think you just use the pillow case like that instead of buying a "sweater bag" to wash your sweaters in. Then you can put it in the washing machine using the...
Also, I use those stackable mesh drying racks instead of putting them on towels so both sides get some air at the same time. Tana, you're right---the downside...
Before giving advice, I would want to know something about the sweater. Is is one color or several? If there are several colors, is there a great deal of...
Julie, I noticed in my new Knit Picks catalog that came yesterday that there's a Sweater Stone on page 44. It's $7.95 which sounds about right for what I paid...
I think Peaches & Cream is just a different brand of cotton than Sugar & Cream. I've heard P&C has a better color selection but S&C is easier to find at the...
Peaches & Cream is at Walmart. I think it is much nicer than Sugar & Cream. It's softer and smoother but still the same strong cotton. I've also bought it...
If you want to pay $5 for a "free" sweater stone and wait 4-6 weeks, you can get one here: http://www.sweaterstone.com/free.htm BB&B seems like a better way to...
I bookmarked Peaches & Cream but haven't ordered any. I use Sugar & Cream, too. It looks like they have a special pack of yarn for Mason Dixon patterns. ...
Well, then that's a good reason to go to WalMart! I'm a confirmed Target shopper and never go to WalMart but looks like I just found a reason to go. Thanks,...

Oh Liz- It's beautiful! Hrrmmm, so I guess I'll have to bring the Baudelaires back again? Maybe it'll be cold enough for me to actually wear them! I will bring...
I'll bring a main dish. I don't know for sure what it will be yet but if it needs bowls, I'll let you know in plenty of time, Liz (or I'll bring them myself)....
My beautiful TKGA announcement looks all scrunched up on my screen at work---all the lines are overlapping and running into each other. It didn't look that...
Liz, your announcement is beautiful. I will bring a dessert. Also, you said you had to bring PAIRS of socks - please make an exception because I most likely...
