New Toys

I couldn't help myself, the new butterfly and shamrock (4 leaf clover) Clover quick yo-yo makers are on their way to my house thanks to the current exchange rate between Aussie and US dollars :)

New Toys on the Way!

My daughter is currently doing her school exams, but once they're over I'll show you the skirt I made for her using suffolk puffs and the other three projects that ensued.

I am living in South Africa, East London. I am looking for a Daisy Maker (Loom) to replace my Mothers OLD one that died. I cannot find anything on the internet - except your site. PLEASE HELP

I wish to knit the cabled tea cozy for my daughter, but I am a little puzzled by the weight of yarn vis-a-vis the size of needles specified. I live in the UK - 3 ply yarn here is very fine (and difficult to find) and old UK number 8 needles would normally be used to knit a UK double knit weight yarn. I find it difficult to envisage a tension of 6-1/2 stitches to the inch for the combination of yarn/needles specified in the pattern.

Are you able to help, please? Is 3-ply yarn in NZ a different weight from that in the UK?

Many thanks
Audrey Worden

I just wanted you to know that I blogged about a scarf I made from your one-skein-wool ease pattern today on my blog.
