Looking forward to Plus-sized info/KAL/bk! |
Aly T Thanks a mill |
Jacqueline O Thank you Sue and Matt ! :) |
Marianne M For necklines, if you can have open stitches with waste yarn, you can count the number of stitches and then cast on that number, make the neck and then attach it stitch to stitch. |
Marja S Oh yes a tool for ruffles, that would be awesome |
Mary Ann B Thanks for another great meeting! |
Patricia H Is there any tool for frills/ruffles? |
Marianne M If we could have inches but also cm for all the tools, that would be really useful for those of us who do not use imperial measures but metric. |

Cynthia P could you tell me where the neck cut out templates are. |
Nancy M I've found that I don't always pick up the same proportion of stitches the whole way around. |
Jacqueline O That is a nice idea to maybe do plaiting so the inside is a contrasting color |
Marie-Jo C Graph paper may be usefuf for intarsia ? |
Gabriele T Do I have to have a round neck for a hood or is it also possible to have a v-neck? |
Hoods with a fairisle pattern LINING the hood are HOT right now! |
