thats funny..i use a shishkabob stick to knit cables!heehee!

i have same thing going on...i have a few, too cute to cut up  but too unshapely to wear cardigans...what to do. i like my cardigans little and snug..is there a way to shrink them evenly or to take them in?

everybodys scarfs are looking great.im just finishing up one for a boy i know. its dark grey...and it started getting pretty boring and dad like..so i added in a hot pink square today..heehee..sorr y no pics..i havent figured out how to post yet(more like too lazy to figure it out) im pretty happy with it.i have just one question..when do i stop? how long should a boy scarf be? is there a rule?

when mine started to get crumby i picked of the little mirror tiles and used them to cover picture frames and cover a end table...kinda like a disco mosaic

i would love a tutorial! those are super pretty!

hey,i was wondering if anyone knew where in italy i could find sheets of magnet,and preferably in rome.i have looked everywhere with no luck.grazie!

i found that Bach flower Rescue rememdy work really well.they come in drop forms and you can get them at the heath food store.i have a couple drops on my tongue if i feel one coming on and it really works. and to keeps my moods level i try to have a good sweat on the treadmill. i was on paxil for a while and i am glad you desided to stop taking it. i dont know about you,but it made me a lot worse

So i have been trying to put together a simple knit purse with straight bamboo handles. I am not sure if they are really bamboo,but they sure as hell look like it,and thats good enough for me. There are tonnes of these reeds that look like it and grow around here.So i tried to make my own pattern and it didnt come out right.And i totally ran out of patience to pick it up and try it again.I even tought myself how to cable for this project!It was looking super cute. Anyways,i was wondering if anyone knew of a pattern for straight handles or where i could find one.I have been looking everywhere but to no avail.Or even if someone could explain how the heck you attach the sticks? i am lost.thanks

ok,i know this is off topic,but i was wondering if anyone has heard how pepperoncino (hot chilli peppers) is supposed to make your lips swell up temporarily.I read it somewhere,but dont remember what you're supposed to do.I think you mix it with hot water or something,and you get instant pouty,"i spent the whole night making out",lips. I wonder if you mix it into your lipbalm?

i have been sporting the 2 french braids.Sometimes i part my hair quite a bit and start right at the root and have it wrap around.Other times i keep it loose and keep my bangs,but at the ends,where the elastic is,i tuck the ends up under the braid,so they are hidden and it gives a different look,a little less Hiedi,a little more grown up.I am pretty lucky i guess,my hair is naturally curly,and even though i usually straighten it ,it can hold a lot of styles.When i am bored,i totally put on some music,grab a glass of wine and a pack of bobbypins and end up with some fun stuff.You just have to be patient and play with your hair.I just put pieces up in chunks and twists and if i like them there i pin there there.YOu just have to have to play and dont worry about it looking perfect,it usually looks better when its not anyways
