Just finished knitting a cotton jumper from my unpicked wool. I now have 500gm of DK cotton but no pattern.

Yoghurt making questions
Hi, I've just bought the Tchibo yoghurt maker and wasn't entirely clear about the instructions. If I use UHT milk do I need to heat it first? Also it says that the milk and the yoghurt you use as a starter must have EXACTLY the same fat content or the yoghurt will be runny. Is this true or will nearly the same do the…

Coleslaw....can you freeze it?
Hi, Seem to be eating more and more salads at the moment. Bit of a silly few questions probably... :rolleyes: Does it work out much cheaper to make your own coleslaw, I assume so?

Maybe we can all pick up tips from each other. Personally I never do meal plans. I enjoy food, and prefer cooking what I or another family member fancies that…
