Needle Notes
Alternating skeins in the round. Helix method. Advice from
Camanoah who is Judy from Camano Island, Washington.
Your mentioned in the podcast having issues
with alternating skeins in the round. My disclaimer about alternating skeins in
the round is that I have gone to great lengths to avoid having to do this.
However, I had a thought a while ago when I was contemplating this issue. Why couldn’t you use the helix method (usually used to do single row striping in the round without jogs)? I have only read about this striping method, but it seems like it could solve the alternating issue if you could somehow identify each ball of the same colored yarn (maybe two different colored yarn ball cozies?). Anyway, I haven’t tried it yet, but maybe will try it on something smaller like a Sockhead hat next time I make one. If someone else tries this and it works, let me know!

Socks
that Do Not Rock. Abandon ship! Was part of my knitting at Georgia Retreat.
Size 0 needle too small. Classic case of needle choice incorrect and making
project miserable. I actually broke a needle too!
My gauge has tightened up and the yarn thicker than some
fingering. Tight twist.
Simple Skyp

Socks that Rock Lightweight. Yarn is wonderful but it is
quite heavy.
The Hat
Quartet-Fall by Melissa Johnson
Lush by TinCanKnits. Still needs buttons.
Photo pending!
Decided to steek the body so I cast on 5 stitches in the
front center and worked body down in stockinette.

Weather was a little chilly but still better than Illinois
where we are still having temperatures in the 20’s…15 F this morning. We also
had snow on Easter and not just a few flurries.

I started Heart in the Right Place on your recommendation and am loving it. Thanks!
You spoke of your button troubles. Here is a website that seems to have nice mother of pearl buttons.

I was a HIV-AIDS patient and I got it from cheating on my wife. It was sort of a payback but a week later I was told by a friend that the person who I cheated with had the HIV-AIDS virus and did not tell me. I was so stupid by not using a condom I thought since he was an old school friend he was trustworthy. But I was wrong. I cried and cried. Two days later, I got a phone call from my friend and he told me about a person who is known by another friend, who can help me. I could not let my wife know what I was going through. I finally got his email address: oseremenspelltemple@gmail.com and I emailed this man my story and he replied me immediately saying i should be calm and told me that everything will be OK. I could not come to terms with what I was hearing but then I concluded it did not matter because I was so broken I just needed help. I was going out of my mind literally. I was confused with what he was telling me, but I listened. He told me about some materials i need to buy that he needed to cast the spell and I said OK. I bought the materials to him, I sent down my picture to him and my positive result sheet and he replied me that i am going to be negative under 3days. I message Him every 2hours for 2day and I knew he thought that I was crazy but I did care I needed a shoulder. Behold, the third day he messaged me i should go for a test that i will be negative. My marriage could be broken because of a stupid mistake and my life was on the line. I remembered when I was going to get the results of my re-test I called him up again and told him that I was going to get my results today and his reply was “so" and that everything will be as he explained. I knew then that he was getting tired of me calling him, maybe I was wrong. Well I got my results and the first person I called was him - again. As he said hello I started to cry and cry. I could not believe it. I was given a second chance in life.This man is a great spiritual HIV/AIDS healer, his healing spell on aids healing is very powerful .please brothers and sister, contact Dr Ose oseremenspelltemple@gmail.com
