Leila, There is another method you can use to be absolutely sure, I saw this on a knitting TV show, you cut yourself a piece of cardboard that is 18 inches by 18 inches and take your yarn end to the edge of any side and wrap it around this cardboard, each complete wrap around is one yard, since your cardboard is 18 x 18 there is no wrong side and there

Andrea, The only thing about e-mailing is if there is something you would rather not share with anyone else. I have a girlfriend who just happens to be living with someone who my husband just happend to know. She was quite embarrased. You can e-mail me all you want.

Andrea, 2:04 a.m. You are lucky your husband is tied into yarn somehow.

Andrea, It is 2:55 in the a.m. I spend my time with my 3 year old and my two year old and since I have trouble staying asleep because of the pregnancy I usually do my cleaning in the wee hours of the morning while they sleep and get on the computer as well. When I post my replys though they post a time about seven hours fast if I remember correctly

Hi Andrea, I guess if I want to make some baby socks I will need some tiny needles and some fine yarn, am I right. I love buying notions so that won't bother me if I do. I have seen shows on television where you have to be careful not to do certain stiches at the bend of the sock because they will leave a hole and to be honest I have never used

Welcome Meagan, It's great to hear you voted. So did I. Socks is one thing that has intimidated me so I have never tried it. Stick to it.
