General Info BMFA yarn question…..
Notorious Sock Knitters | February 07, 2008
I was just wondering……I was looking around on the web site, and I notice that none of the heavier weight yarns that they sell are superwash. (Or none that I saw anyhow, am I missing something?) So….I got to thinking about why. Is this because there is no market for it? Or does making it superwash somehow compromise the quality of the yarn? I was just thinking ahead to some projects I’d like to make, but I would really prefer to use superwash yarn. I didn’t see anywhere on the web site to provide feedback directly back to them. Any thoughts?
Help finding needles - I want to cast on NOW!
Notorious Sock Knitters | February 07, 2008
OK, so I received my kit yesterday (in England) and would be all ready to cast on apart from the fact that I can’t find any needles of the right size. I hate DPN’s (sorry, but it’s true), 2 circs at a time is OK, but I really want to try and Magic Loop these beauties 2 at a time. I cannot find any 2.25mm 100cm (40″) needles anywhere. Get Knitted are the only UK stockist of Knit Picks needles and don’t yet stock this size. Knit Picks won’t ship to me as I live in England. Hiya Hiya make this size, but again, the UK stockist doesn’t currently have this size. Addi don’t make this size either. What do I do? Give up and use the pointy DPN’s? I want to enjoy this pair of socks though…. I don’t want to end up spending a fortune on shipping.Any bright ideas (or stockists that I don’t know about) welcome. :)
Disaster!!!!
Notorious Sock Knitters | February 06, 2008
I am nearly in tears right now. I came home from work and found my yarn had become the dog’s chew toy. Not only is it a tangled mess, but it has been chewed through in at least 2 places. There is no way I am going to be able to make my socks and not have the striping pattern totally messed up . I don’t know what to do. All I can do is cry.
