It reminds me of some of the larger shawls on Folk Shawls (that I particularly liked), but the edging makes it more delicate - it's beautiful. I love this!

It's basically a long strip of fabric with slots to thread the needles through. In the Stitch n Bitch book, there’s a sewing pattern for a circular needle holder.

Sue at the Knitting habit will order in some things that Serendipity used to carry. The other store that's a lot closer is in Ancaster. The http://www.needleemporium.com/<br/>is a GREAT store, and Julie is very helpful. She carries most of the hot sock yarns that I've heard about on Lime and Violet, and Noro and Malabrigo, etc.<br/><br/>If you are starting a knitting group at a cafe, let me know! That’s a beautiful sock Karen!

I totally know what you mean about being plus size and not knitting a sweater yet. I am in the same boat so I too keep knitting socks. Isn't that funny how our minds work.<br/><br/>For me it is kind of like going shopping for jeans. Hardly ever find a pair that fit but when I go to the shoe department...hallelujah...all the shoes fit! Same thing with knitted socks. Did that make any sense? <br/><br/>Marly<br/>knitthing.mypodcast.com Preach on sister! I totally know what you mean about being plus size and not knitting a sweater yet.

Sometimes it'll put the photos in for me, sometimes it won't. Needless to say, I think any future problems can be put squarely on Blogger's shoulders, and not our computers.<br/><br/>The whole replying-to-comments thing is also apparently still stumping me. Huh. Thanks for the comment, Fiona!

On another note, I was having major Blogger problems at the same time as you but, being a technophobe, I assumed it was just MY computer. Thanks for showing me it was affecting more than just me. :-) Your library knitting group sounds like it’s going really well.
