I love love love that. I can crochet but I've never done anything with the afghan stitch and definatly not a double one. So I've been trying to find the double sided afghan stich for the last half hour but can't seem to locate a tute of sorts on the net. Can anyone help me out??

Thanks a lot!

I'm a (very) new knitter and I knit combined (so I have been told). I've started blu for my ds and am totally stuck once I have to do more than normal knitting/purling I've done the cuff bit and than its says to "(RS): SL1, K1, M1, K to last 2 st, m1 k2". I think i'm ok with the m1's just the sl 1 everywhere I read to slip as if purling but I don't see any difference. I'm totally confused and would appreciate any help.

Thank you!

have you got a pic??

Hubby just had a look and says it looks like a small rope splitter you poke the end trough the rope where you want to split it and leave it in the rope at the Small metal bit and than just keep pulling it trough the rope to split it. it apparently used in fishing going to have a look around the internet now 

I like it and think the colour is gorgeous but why would you want to cover up  I bf my 17 month old ds and I've never even thought of covering up it kind of makes it something bad or dirty. I'm not saying I have them both hanging out though Last time going trough customs ds latched of looked at the customs guy smiled and squeezed my boob giving him an eyeful   

I'll cross my fingers for you that your little one doesn't mind being covered up.  Mine always liked to show off what they were eating, :-)  I actually found my sling to be the best cover up, since they were inside it and couldn't really throw THAT off.

I have to second that everytime I see a mum trying to cover up its like this huge sign that reads "hello breastfeeding in progress!!" I have a sling and just shop around town whilst ds is happily feeding. people don't notice until they  actually look inside the sling.

thank you that makes sense now 

Here is a link to diy.. an episode on making variegated yarn. They used acid dyes in the tutorial, but we used the same method with kool aid which worked out really well as kool aid has high acid content. We used a little vinegar on some of the skeins and didn't on the others. It really didn't need it and a different foam brush for each color. Hope that helps.(^_^)
