A tension square is usually knitted in stocking stitch, 1 row knit, 1 row purl. Give it a go.

Well I think it is a great idea.I know the pattern gets creased after using it for a bit but is nice to start out with them looking pristune. I keep mine in those plastic folders when using them, keeps them a bit cleaner.

Hi Vonnie, how is the st st sweater going !!

I love a bit of crochet, I made mile a minute afghans for my grandchildren and also for other children. I find crochet easier to travel with too, rather than knitting. Good luck with your projects.

I think just the act of concentrating on the knitting takes your mind off other things.
Do hope your heart surgery was a success and your family are back in good health and you are getting your life back to normal.
Welcome !!

Hello Vonnie, and welcome. Tell us about yourself - how long have you been knitting?

If you google for "knitting pattern pinafore dress" it comes up with a couple on eBid. Have not used that site, only used Ebay but I am sure it would be OK.

Yes, Yvette, looks like a search is in order

Kate Jacobs book Comfort Food is about a widow who cooks on TV. Just got it out of the library. I think her next knitting book is Knit 2 but haven't seen it anywhere yet.

I shall look for that one as well, thanks.

I shall check out Christie Ridgway. Gil McNeil has a new one coming out soon I believe.

No I haven't but can recommend Divas Don't Knit by Gil McNeil, also the Friday Night Knitting Club. Go them from the library.

Thankyou, and the same for all our members.

Checked out your blog Searchfamilies. Loved the picture of you and your Mum and the goodies you have made.
