My first knitted dishcloth:

Gwen, Yes, I can see what you mean. I knew NOTHING just a few months ago and I now know a few things. Sometimes I will read a pattern section many, many times and then like you referred to...............a light bulb will go off and I get it. It will take some time and patience but I will get it. :o) Thanks, Susie

Hi Cher, Thanks! :o) Nah, I won't be joining in. I have so much to do I will be lucky to get that done but thanks, Susie

AUD, I am????????? Well, thank you. :o) I try! Off to get the housework done so I can work on the sleeve to my grandson's sweater. Thanks, Susie

Susie sometimes this is the most facinating part of knitting God Bless Gwen

Susie,

Your dishcloth looks great! I love the NY initials on it too. As a new knitter, you certainly are doing well! There is a great dishcloth pattern on page 74 of the January 2006 issue of Creative Knitting magazine. It is round and looks pretty easy. Am just starting one now. Good luck with that sweater!

Hi Emjay, Thanks for liking my dishcloth. I don't know anyone ever uses them though. They are too pretty. :) I will have to take a look for that magazine. Thanks, Susie

Wow, a great job, Susie. You are quite the knitter for a beginner...kudos to you! I found a great pattern for a round dishcloth in the January 2006 issue of Creative Knitting magazine. It's on page

74 and doesn't look too difficult...have just started one. Good luck with the sweater!

Are you new to the group, Emjay? I don't remember seeing you posting on here before! If you are new... welcome to the newsgroup. If you aren't new, just chalk it up to another blonde moment for me! LOL

Gemini

Hi Emjay. Ummmm, did you know that you answered three posts with essentially the same message? New to newsgroups?

It looks great Susie. You have done so well for being a *beginner* you must come by it naturally. Marie and the cats hope you had a nice Thanksgiving

Hi Susie,

I think she is as I don't remember seeing her name before, so welcome Emjay to the group. Come back and tell us how the round cloth turned out.

Nora

Sue,

Yes, you can tell I'm new to this! When I didn't see the post right away, I went and did it two more times. Chalk it up to inexperience!! (this will only get posted once!!)

Emjay

Yes, Gemini,

I am new to the group so it wasn't just a "blonde moment" for you! Thanks for the welcome.

Emjay

And it did!

Now, something that most people are used to is quoting a little bit of the message you reply to. Since you're using Google to post, you see all the messages in the thread. Some of us use a newsreader and most of the time can't see all the messages without a lot of fiddling around with the reader. Or the server doesn't pick them up or carry them for long. To quote in Google, first click on Show Options at the top of the message, then the reply link that's up there instead of the one at the end of the message. That quotes the whole thing and you can delete parts that you don't want to comment on... depending on how long it is.

Anyway, welcome and this can be a fun group with all kinds of enabling links to yarns and patterns. Have fun!

:o) Well, I'm sure you're going to love it here at rcty. The people are very friendly and helpful... and we tend to chat like family about all sorts of things... including yarnworks.

Welcome New Emjay Where about oin the Globe do you resident ? mirjam

Hi Marie, :o) Thanks for the compliment. Yes, we had a nice Thanksgiving and I hope you did too, thanks, Susie

Emjay, Welcome to the group. Where are you located and how long have you been knitting? :) Susie
