Comment by NanetteD on April 4, 2009 at 9:45am: I have made a stocking cap out of bamboo. The yarn is a little tricky to work with because its a bit lumpy, but the end product is very soft. It also washes up well! What kind of bamboo project did you have in mind?

Comment by Barb on April 4, 2009 at 12:56am: Has anybody looked into bamboo yarn? I'm trying to use more natural fibers and don't know much about bamboo.

Comment by Andrea Davis on March 8, 2009 at 1:52pm: Hey, knitters. My brother's gfriend is making him this beard mask/hat. Knitted Beard Hats

I asked him to send me the link to the pattern, and he sent me back some code.

You guys use code to know where to knit? Is that possible?

Comment by Hope on January 21, 2009 at 9:21am: They are logged, a-hole. Of course they are. AND I even wrote up a really horrible. pattern for them so there. I'm going to HL after work to see about some doll hands and maybe feet or soemthing, I have a ninja finishing idea so we'll see it could be great and it could be terrifying. Nice work Kelli, always in praise of a new knitter unlike Nan, she's mean. :)

Well OK, that was hostility shining through. I am so behind in all of my projects. But its jealous b#tches, day right? I mean, I am in the clear, right?
