I simply gave it up in short order because I knitted way too tightly and hated trying to pull those stitches off my needle! It wasn't until a couple years ago that I tried it again and when I was knitting too tightly, I went to Walmart to buy bigger needles, thinking that would help. I talked to the woman in the yarn department who told me, <i>'Go home and practice. You don't need different needles; you need practice.'</i> I laughed, went home, and practiced!!! And sure enough, she was right. After a while, my stitches became looser and more even. And now I love it! (even though I still make mistakes and sometimes get stuck and have to 'phone a friend.' :-)Cranberry Morninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10758563068581561194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3212581401252445388.post-88840214421875271462012-01-04T17:33:34.877-06:002012-01-04T17:33:34.877-06:00Such a pretty bag.

Love them! So thick and warm! And some ingenous person thought of putting puffy paint on the bottoms for non-slip. <br />You could make slippers by just knitting a large square and cutting out and sewing them together. Just saw a pattern that way.Heide at ApronHistoryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01031250918789204123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3212581401252445388.post-23465360694569546382012-01-04T08:32:48.346-06:002012-01-04T08:32:48.346-06:00Have I made any felted projects?
