Hi Christine, two questions:
Thanks
David
That's good - it has a positive ring.
Hi there David
It can be a crochet-along, embroider-along, sew-along: whatever you like really
Love Christine
Hi Christine,
Thanks,
David
No David, it's just a decision to make, say, a shawl to a particular pattern, using yarn of each participants choice, and all starting at the same time. During the making of the shawl each participant report on their progress, sometimes showing photos if that's appropriate for the way the group communicate. They can then share problems with the pattern and the solutions if they've found them and encourage each other. Then each participant finishes up with an item they've made which is similar to everybody else's, but absolutely unique. Sometimes if the group meet up they all wear their own item so they can recognise each other.
The 6x6 exchange on rcty is quite different, in that everybody ends up with a selection of squares which has come from all over the place, and is totally different to anybody else's.
Hope that's clearer
Love Christine
I like that! Let's use our stash for LGMS. That could work.
Kather> How about a call to activity for a knit-along: Let's Get Making
Hi, David. A knit-along CAN be a competition, but it usually isn't. Usually, it is just a group of people, all of whom want to knit the same thing, but for some reason or other, haven't. So they challenge each other, and before you know it, they all have the project finished.
HTH Kather> Hi Christine,
David, Have you read Christine's suggestion? I like the sound of that - Let's Get Making Something - referring to a knit-along.
Kather> *chuckle* Well, I crochet much more - a _lot_ more! - than I knit at
my goodness Katherine I thought it meant you all knitted something...in that case I need to start lots of knit-a-longs then to get all the to do items finished....
cheers...Cher
Good idea....but am disappointed Els didn't come in on this one....She would have had a name or two for sure for it..lol
Cheers...Cher
Thanks Christine, that's much clearer now, and now I understand bettter what some of the posts have been on this and two other yarn news groups.
David
How about "look group - my shawl!" for me it would be a sweater *chuckle*
David
Thanks Katherine!
I like how different people answer a question in different ways, so there are a multitude of opinions and ways of looking at the same thing. *smile*
David
Yes I have Katherine, and responded to it, as you've probably read by now. However, I'm not much of a competitive person, and actually the vast majority of my crochet projects are not following a specific pattern, but artistic things I have designed in the process of the crocheting. None of them has turned out the same except for when I crochet granny squares. I have several ufos, a couple afos (almost-finished objects), and things I have started which turned into colorful pieces of simulated fried bacon which I later frogged lol!
David
Uh-huh, you *do* all knit something - the *same* thing.
Kather> my goodness Katherine I thought it meant you all knitted
right lets see there are the socks in one basket that need doing, oh and the gloves and hat I never got around to, another scarf, a blanket, fulled baby bootee's ..mmmn quite alot of knit a longs then....lol
