We could use a register of who knits and who crochets.

 

What did you want to chat about in here?

Hi Peggy....II don;t really know where you are wanting this to go....I think you are a great knitter....just to think you just picked it up in the last year....I have knitted for years and years...but the truth is, I like to crochet better...My aunt taught me how to knit...and I made covers for the wooden hangers...they were very popular back then, but not so much now.but I have taught a couple of my grand kids to knit them too, and they loved it....also I do a lot of dish cloths  and they are so fun to make...One year I made them for a church that hands out clothes and coats to those misfortunate...and I made and put bows on each one and they handed them out to each woman that came into the Community clothes Line...there is what I have to say...hope this site is as popular as others you have started, Peggy....Merry Christmas!!!!

I knit and crochet. Knitting takes less yarn but crochet goes faster.

I think there are a lot of crochet folk in KAS because KAS are asking for squares, and a lot of people who crochet have favourite squares that they like to make.  

Not that it is hard to knit a square.  Some people do seem to have trouble constantly working in Garter Stitch, but I don't. I know KAS don't mind what stitch the squares are made from, as long as they are warm, but most of the time I just use Garter Stitch, since it is fast.

hum never thought of the crocheters like that having there own favorite square.  I have a nieghbor I think I have mentioned before and she owns a yarn shop is a very good knitter I asked her to come over and teach me some stuff.  I have this one pattern I might make.  I am asking for this for xmas.  I was going to ask for a blu ray player but don't really need it.
