Is there anyplace I can find a standard length for drawstrings or a formula (nb/sm). I am dreading every inch LOL

This is the last of my shower gifts. I ripped out the bonnet and am pretending it doesn't exist =D They are sort of mid-length shorties with a picot hem edge. I've still got all the hemming and grafting to do.

I love that! That is so cute! We definitely need to do a trade sometime.

Nice job! Finished just in time for the summer.

No stitches. I thought it needed them but it stopped bleeding. I dyed up some yarn for trade. Gonna get me some socks! She wanted sock yarn dyed and a trim dyed, and my customer that got fiber in my co-op wanted more.. so she now has a total of 1lb of this coming her way. ♥ 8 from the co-op and 8 more again. it was still damp this morning so it will go out tomorrow.

Glad he is ok! The fibre looks very nice.

Originally Posted by Reuben Christopher I have a question for all you talented people, I have some roving and I want to dye it but I haven't dyed roving before, anything I should do differently than with yarn? Also My mom gave me a basic little spindle, any tutorials online that you would recommend for learning to spin with it? And just cause I think it's cute, here is a gnome I just finished for the baby Brandon auctions.

Love the gnome!! I need to make my baby some knitted toys!

Hi everyone. Sad that I haven't been able to come on here lately......life at home is not going well at all right now. And today our 1.5yr old puppy died I can't believe it and my oldest DS and I found her

Here are a few things I've done lately though.







Off to cry a little more, then to bed because I start a new job tomorrow (only Saturdays for 5hrs, but it's something)

I think the formula is 3x what the waist is..
