Is anybody in here so OS that they can cook, eat and live without shopping for months on end ? Like past generations who maybe lived on a remote farm & only went to the town a few times a year ..? I would like to really try for this next year, and would welcome your ideas and tips on how to do it.

Look, mardatha, you set the parameters for this thread, don't blame me if I'm doing what you suggested back at the start :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
I don't knit socks so much though - I'll swap you a few dishcloths for a nice pair of socks if you like...

Does anyone spin their own yarn to knit into dishcloths?
Runs away to hide from Mardatha and her lynch mob!
Trying to spend less time on MSE so I can get more done ... it's not going great so far!
Sorry if I don't reply to posts - I'm having MAJOR trouble keeping up these days!

Um, no, because I don't know how to spin cotton!
Sadly, I have been known to unravel things to turn them into dishcloths...0 -
Ok CC, I think that means you win the Queen of Old Style award!
Can someone knit her up a trophy or make one out of leftovers? Trying to spend less time on MSE so I can get more done ... it's not going great so far!
