Trish Posted September 11, 2007 Share Posted September 11, 2007 (edited) For those of you who were interested here's a less than flattering picture of me with 5 foot needles. Sorry still haven't worked out how to put pictures in a post. (I can - Kate ) Edited September 12, 2007 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowy Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 Trish, just seen this picture and remembered you were wearing a knitted shrug when we met at Blenheim. Did you make that one too? And on the long needles? It was lovely! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trish Posted September 16, 2007 Author Share Posted September 16, 2007 hi guys, sorry for the delay in replying, our computer has died,typing this on hubbies PDA. Now I've got the flu, feel like I,ve been trampled by a herd of elephants. In answer to various questions, yup the only way I can use them is stood up,at the moment I am knitting a throw for my bed but you can do rugs, throws, hangings and if you use less strands of yarn you can do basic garments, jumpers from squares etc. Thanks for noticing my shrug Snowy, yes I did knit it but definatley not on those needles I seem to remember the stand Igot thhem from was something to do 2with narrowboats so I'll try and find them out. Sorry don't really know how much I'll be on the forum for a whhile, off to talk sweet nothings with the duvet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
