DKY Knitters Forum.

Well, from one grumpy old woman to another my most annoying phrase is 'off of'. It's everywhere, tv, films radio, even my daughter uses it all of the time but it really, really aggravates me!!!!!

I agree Scorsbluebell, it should be knitted as in knit, knitting, knitted.

I haven't voted as I only use bamboo or wooden ones now. I find they are much better for me, apart from that I only use circulars and I really like the interchangeable too so I pay the price!!

Hi Tracey, welcome to the forum. It sounds like you have had a stressful time recently, I hope you find that your knitting calms you and brings a sense of achievement.

Hi Valerie

Welcome to the forum. It would be lovely to see photos of your crochet, it seems to be something I would love to be able to do better than I can now but don't know how to progress. Inspiration may help!!

Hi Mel, congratulations on getting the hang of crochet, you'll get hours of satisfaction from both doing it and admiring the things you have made. I too am in Derbyshire so if you fancy another go at knitting at any time let me know and maybe we could meet up and I could help.

Hi Vonnie, welcome to the forum

I think it's time to sort through the knitting patterns

That looks lovely, and such a pretty colour too.

He's lovely, well done. I lovve a good way to use up all of the oddments!!

It discolours quickly too - even in a non-smoking household.

Hi Edna, welcome to the forum. It sounds like you will fit in here very well. Personally, I have just bought 3 more batches of yarn to add to the 7 lots I already have, all with projects in mind!!

Hi Ann

She's lovely, does she have a name?

They're very nice - and environmentally friendly too

Hi Jane

it sounds like you will fit in well around here. I look forward to 'chatting' to you too - we may have more in common than just the name

Jane

I've never really done any crochet before other than little squares that my Grandma taught me how to do when I was about 10 and I haven't done any of them for years, but last week I picked up a book at the library and decided to have a go. This is the result.......
