I found several dead and/or incorrect links a couple of days ago. Unfortunately there has not been time to correct them. In a few cases, it is because the designer has moved a site to a new address.
I apologize to the affected designers and users of this site. The needed changes will be made in the next few weeks as time allows.
A new page was added yesterday. It is titled Loom Knitting. The contents of this page are a Work In Progress and will change as there is more time to research this topic.
Enjoy!
For the past couple of months my household has been having computer problems. Some of them have been problems with our ISP. Others have been hardware issues on our part. These came to a head recently when we could not remain on the Internet consistently for more than a couple of hours at the most. during that time updating blogs became a frustrating chore.
Thanks to some major help from our ISP’s technical support team and some changes in hardware, these issues have been resolved.
I have been and will be spending as much time as possible updating this blog. This includes adding links; possibly adding some pages and checking for and dealing with dead links. I will also be going through comments which have been left and making sure they receive replies.
Please be patient as I work through this process.
There has been a little bit of updating to this site this evening. Some new links have been added to various pages. There have been some dead links corrected or removed.
There will more additions and changes here in the upcoming days and weeks.
Almost since the start of this blog there have been requests for directions about how to make scrubbies from nylon netting. This evening while updating and adding links here, I found an article on this topic. It is called Crocheting Dish Scrubbies 101
I hope this helps answer some of the questions you have on this subject.
A new page titled Towels has been added. Right now it only contains links to two ( 2 ) knit towels. This is a work in progress and as such is not complete. It is my hope that you enjoy it and find it useful.
Since starting this site, there have been questions about what patterns are used in the cloths on the header. The one on the left is Grandma’s Favorite and can be found here or here.
The pattern on the right is called the Ballband Dishcloth. It is named this because it was originally found on the wrapper, or ball band of Peaches & Creme cotton yarn.
You can find the pattern in a couple of different places. The first link below is to the original pattern.

It can also be found in the Mason Dixon Knitting Book by Kay Gardiner and Ann Shayne.
There are variations of both patterns. The links to some of these can be foundon other pages of this site:
More links are being added to the page: Heart Cloths today as well as to other pages.
Have a great day!
