Hi,I just found the site last night and I can't wait to get started. I live in Surrey in England and I plan to get my first ball of wool today. I'm not a good knitter, but I'll do my best. I love…Continue

P. Jeanne Haessler said… Hi Patricia. Glad to have you with us! I hear you, I can only do garter in knitting too or I get muddled up. Generally I crochet and I can even muddle that up! However, back to the Cuddle, I found one in my UFO (unfinished objects) pile and it's about 32" around so all I have to do is keep crocheting the tube til it's about 30" long then I'll start going back and forth instead of round and round, to make that front slit at the neckline for the last 5 inches. It sounds like you are headed in the same direction. You can indeed make the top collar bit wider if you like though I find just having the slit the last 5 inches works...you can turn that down if needed. See how it goes and let me know. There's nothing like adventuring with yarn! Hugs, Jeanne :)

Glad you liked the KasCuddles! Do remember to make them bigger now, as requested. Pam Antink has the dimensions. She asked me to rewrite the pattern but if won't be for a while as I'm only just out of hospital from serious surgery and just sending this from the laptop of the friend with whom I am recuperating.
(((hugs))) to you too!

Christine Johnson said… Patricia, as the forum has become so big now it is sometimes difficult for people to find their way around. I did a list of links some time ago that should help with information and where to find it. Perhaps you might find it useful:
Well done for having completed three squares - I too love the idea that my squares are mixed in with others from around the world.

For cheap yarn look at Kemps or Black Sheep Wools online shops. You can also try using two strands of 4ply yarn knitted together, with 5.5mm needles. 4ply looks expensive per ball, but you get a good meterage for it.
I was born in Caterham - the baby gift shop in the little shopping mall bit in the valley (near Morrisons) sells yarn, and they sometime have a bargain box. Look in there for Aran weight yarn, or grab two balls of 4 ply from the regular shelves.
