Knitting Magazine by Burda in English! Oh, thanks for the link. My aunt the knitter-seamstress- embroiderer-painter-etc. (so many artistic skills I did not inherit!) used Burda`s sewing patterns when I was a girl. I loved looking through those big, heavy books full of beautiful images.

Precious, Bri! So very cute, and in a colorway my little DGD would love, too! But wait, it is not her turn...Grandma has to find more knitting time...

Esprit color question I noticed that there seem to be two colors numbered 8176, Natural and Ecru (different lots). On my screen they look identical. Are they?
Thanks,

Sock yarn w/nylon for shawl Good question. I`ve been wondering about that, too. Somehow socks always get pushed to the bottom of my list...

My husband has lost his mind! AhAhAh... but come to think of it, Benne, it must be the "greenest" way all around of killing those bees...

She returned unscathed! All good news, Les! I second Billie`s suggestion.

What to watch while knitting? For lace knitting, music - preferably classic. No dramatic operas, though, unless it is Puccini...

Schachenmayr Only Stretch Libby, both are elastic but Only was a wool/acrylic/nylon mix, whereas Esprit is cotton-based.
I love both (wish I had really stocked up on Only, as I used every inch I bought on my grandkids) and don`t see why you cannot substitute, as long as you keep the warmth factor in mind.
What are you planning?

The side bar and more... WOW!!! What a week here, while I was away for DD`s graduation (as Doctor of Pharmacy, following on two great-grandfathers` footsteps) ! I`m still trying to catch up with the beautiful, the whimsical and the praying. Good to know that all is well!
