I can never be bothered to get the heel the right shape. Jumpers (are they called sweaters in the US? Pullovers?) are more my thing. I love Aran knitting, but nowadays the winters aren't cold enough to justify wearing it :-(Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11901028520813891575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30980619.post-79544654948385620072007-10-09T07:24:00.000-06:002007-10-09T07:24:00.000-06:00David, I have some knitting related content near t...David, I have some knitting related content near the beginning of my blogging- when I didn't tag. Interesting, my only post about knitting until now was back in Aug of 06. I just started knitting this past year. I love dyeing yarn, my friend likes spinning, so we make a good pair. <BR/><BR/>I found the Shetland Trader blog through other knitting blogs and Knitty, but didn't know it was your wife Constance Brewerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17964121072645959593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30980619.post-37270366282500491612007-10-09T00:18:00.000-06:002007-10-09T00:18:00.000-06:00Constance, I don't think I knew that you were a kn...Constance, <BR/><BR/>I don't think I knew that you were a knitter. This appears to be your first post on the subject (at least it's the only one that comes up under the knitting label). Very interesting. I don't knit myself, but my wife does! Living in Fresno has kinda made it a bit tougher to stay knitting, but she's not letting up!<BR/><BR/>In case you're interested, she keeps a blog here: David Anthony Durhamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13885922955551669016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30980619.post-16228473755412714862007-10-08T18:38:00.000-06:002007-10-08T18:38:00.000-06:00Harrumph, it's a definite possibility.
