    sorry to jump on here, but, i have a scarf i am supposed to be knitting that uses three strands of wool at the same time and only requires 9 stitches. problem is its supposed to be done on size 25mm needles. feels like i am trying to juggle two trees.noticed your size 10 mm and wondered if you had any tips or advice on how to knit with big needles, please
    Sorry, no idea ... they sound BIG!

    Lovely work Thrifty, great piccies.

    Aw Orkney, that jumper is gorgeous ... but not as cute as the model wearing it, he is lovely!
    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!

    Lovely pics thifty, and I see a little cross stitch scissor keeper there- I made that exact design a couple of yrs back but it fell apart eventually :(.
