My dh works a rotating shift & that was one of the days he worked evenings, so my son (who is 30 & single) offered to take me!Cindy/KShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01902208663724302611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27782375.post-55737385805632499512010-01-29T15:58:47.212-06:002010-01-29T15:58:47.212-06:00Wow, I am jealous.

If I lived in Overland...Bo, that's great! :o)<br /><br />If I lived in Overland Park, I'd take you to a K&B.<br /><br />My K&B group is a BIG part of my sanity saving. It gives me one night a week where "Mom brain" isn't front and center. It gives me a chance to relax and not be Mom, but just a friend.<br /><br />Can't wait to hear how it goes. :o)<br /><br />P.S. I love my Bond machine. When one can knit an Adult XL stockinette sweater in a matter of 2 days, what's not to love? Just imagine the number of knit squares you could do for charity blankets!<br /><br />The most important thing is to swatch. I use the extension weight to do my swatches so I can calculate row and stitch count and how many make up an inch. (Remember to take it off the weight and let it relax a bit so you get the most accurate count. Don't ask how I know this :oP ) Then I just roughly rewrite the pattern out in Row counts. I've also found that it's easier if I wind the working yarn into a pull cake first, that way I don't get confronted with snags or knots in the middle of my knitting.<br /><br />Also, I like to handknit my ribbing and then put it on the machine from there. For me, it's less stressful. I also handknit the button bands, the neck bands and any collars after I have sewn up the pieces.<br /><br />Enjoy the machine! It's a lot of fun! :o)Melnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27782375.post-44765036941116797792010-01-29T05:34:58.024-06:002010-01-29T05:34:58.024-06:00Thank you, Knitrageous!Thank you, Knitrageous!Bo...https://www.blogger.com/profile/02136803397641401011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27782375.post-89663711109161886992010-01-29T04:47:58.408-06:002010-01-29T04:47:58.408-06:00hey, went on a blog reading hiatus but im back to ...hey, went on a blog reading hiatus but im back to say, i go to two stitch and bitches a week and you are going to love it, and they are so supportive and knitters in general (missin out the odd one or two crazy who pop up every now and again)are the best type of people and those of us that actually take the time to read your blog and see what a good person you are know you're one of the good guys. dont let the losers get ya down xxxknitrageoushttp://www.knitrageous.robertsonweb.me.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27782375.post-63050380895929715422010-01-28T23:25:46.438-06:002010-01-28T23:25:46.438-06:00Thank you, MJS!Thank you, MJS!Bo...https://www.blogger.com/profile/02136803397641401011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27782375.post-45141775625118704072010-01-28T23:12:27.211-06:002010-01-28T23:12:27.211-06:00Bo saw the insane at play traffic sign.

You are better (more sane, more intelligent, more normal) than Bo in what way? I believe there were "stalkerish" behaviors early on when the YH brouhaha came down(like IP tracking, big whoop) but nuttin compared to you honey. You make Bo look like Mother Teresa. I feel bad for both the YH and Bo because who would want you on their friend OR foe list? Not me. Go obsess about something else you freak. <br /><br />You call Bo chicken shit? That is rich. I have a challenge for YOU, Psycho...what is your Ravelry name? we know you have one.#8noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27782375.post-52215746783480322002010-01-28T15:01:34.544-06:002010-01-28T15:01:34.544-06:00That sounds fabulous!
