The Sand Pit & Knitting Crone

This is the comment I wrote to mom on her 360 blog that Yahoo won't let me add.

Actually this particular skein isn't superwash mom, so no washer and dryer. That's 100% Merino hand wash yarn. However the yarn that I do sell is superwash. One thing to note about my superwash line, the colors are not solid like other commercial yarns. I won't use Synthrapol because of our septic system, so the even the colors themselves have slight variations to them. I think it gives each of the color more depth and makes it look more like real life.

I see there are still glitches in the 360 system, like I cannot leave comments on Other People's Blogs. I actually do like Multiply, I think the only draw back is the theme's. They don't have too many choices for the default ones. So Since I cannot leave comments on your 360 Blog. I'll leave them here.

Icelandic Bind Off You Tube vid

Sun, 25 Nov 2007 14:48:18 GMT

Hi Everyone,

I've picked up last year's winter knitting project and have started knitting on it again. I may just have it finished before Christmas this year. It's the Fenna Shawl from Myrna Stawman's Faroses Style Shawls and Seaman Scarves. I love knitting these shawls. The Fenna is basically a work shawl. Something practical to wear around the house in the winter time or on a cooler fall and spring days to do the chickens with.

Well she suggests an Icelandic Bind-Off. Now what the heck is that? I went surfing and found a You tube video on how to do it. You have to watch closely, because she's actually binding off a toe up sock.

WOW!!!!

All I can say is WOW!!!

West Shore Community College's local chapter of Phi Theta Kappa in Scottville Michigan has collected over 1900 items for the local Salvation Army Food Banks. With the help of the employees at Little River Casino in Manistee Michigan we collected close to 2500 items.

That's alot of cans folks. WAY TO GO!

A TAN Dragon Lies Beneath!

My inner dragon is the true draconic magic-user. Deep down I am very wise, somewhat shy, and I have a rather short fuse. But don't worry, tans prefer to spend their time counting their enormous treasure, so pass quietly and you'll stay out of danger. Click the image to try the Inner Dragon Online Quiz for yourself.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yahoo!_360%C2%B0

I swiped this link from Joansie's 360 blog. Even though they said it wasn't decided yet on the 360 blog. It looks as if they decided to do a mash like blog. There's a link at the end of the article that takes you to a website that's been given an inside look into the Yahoo Mash; so, it may give you a feel for what's in the future.

I personally will be moving to Multiply. They listen to their users, and give them what they ask for if possible. Many folks look at this stuff and say well it's free, why grouch about it. Yes it's free to us, but the advertisers pay big bucks to be able to advertise. Technically, it isn't free then. The advertisers pay the costs for us. Happy users are happy consumers.

I may keep this on occassion, but for the most part look for me on Multiply. Here again is my link

If you are on there, and wish to still be me friend come see me.

Okay am I crazy or what? Yahoo keeps sending me to the past

Tue, 06 Nov 2007 15:11:26 GMT

GRRR. yahoo keeps sending to October entries whenever I go to view someone's blog. Another thing it's doing is telling me I have to sign in when I leave a comment. GRRRRR. This is getting frustrating and I'm really considering completely moving my blog over to Multiply.

It's a good thing they are scrapping this heap of junk, cuz t he more they tweak things the more issues that arise.

On another note.

Here's me for tomorrow's tests.
