    How long ago was that? Your knitting is great. Maybe if you say not too long ago, I'll have newfound inspiration. I'm not very good at crochet and worse at knitting. lol

    I agree that books are tough sometimes.

    oops sorry to hijack Julie.

    I'm glad you found the video helpful and are cruising along.

    I have 3 rows done, not that they are all even tension, but it doesn't look too bad. I'm doing a dishcloth, in just the knit stitch, so no one will see it but me!
