New! Caron One Pound, Caron Simply Soft and Herrschners 2-Ply Afghan palettes - thank you to BetwixtTheStitch!

New!  The Herrschner's Worsted Palette - thank you to BetwixtTheStitch!

New!  We've just added the palette for Deborah Norville Everyday Yarn!  If you knit and/or crochet, this is for you.  This is a beautiful yarn with a nice feel to it, a good alternative in worsted weight acrylic!  (Thank you again to BetwixtTheStitch!)

New!  The Red Heart Super Saver Palette - thank you to BetwixtTheStitch!

Welcome to Stitchboard!  Feel free to sit and stay awhile.  Check out our new Premier features.  In addition to the ability to create larger patterns (up to 500 stitches wide), illusion knitting and private labeling (no more worries about editing those pesky and messy PDFs), we've just introduced Filet Crochet, our most popular request!  We have many more features planned, too!  Laughing

That is, unsurprisingly exactly what other people have told me. Surprised  So, when I hit the point of running out of wool, I already know what my next one is going to be.

Maybe it will end up being the same length as the old Doctor Who scarf.  Foot in Mouth

Line,

Maybe teach the kids to crochet for themselves?  Wink  They could really get to working on your WIPs, which could cut it way down so you can add more to it...  Laughing

Always thinkin'!  Laughing

I hear you...large projects like blankets, especially with just a basic single crochet stitch or a Tunisian stitch, can get so boring so fast.  Frown

Teaching the kids to crochet their own things is sounding better and better, right?  Wink  LOL.

Line,

I'm so glad you speak up when you see dogs in carriages!  Kiss  Those poor dogs probably want to be running around, but their stupid idiot owners won't let them!

Anyone can see it's an entirely different thing than cats.  Cats are...temperamental.  They want things just so.  You won't get a cat to move unless it's the cat's idea, and that's why taking one for a walk on a harness is definitely an exercise in futility - no pun intended!  LOL.

But a dog doesn't have that desire to sit still for long periods of time.  Cats love it.  Dogs...well, their impatience is good in other ways.  Kiss

LOL, that said, I seriously wish our girl would get a bit of energy and decide to really explore, not just lay in various spots close to each other...sniffing. Eating grass.  Pulse-pounding excitement!  Not.

And I agree, it's ridiculous to carry a dog around when there's no danger.  Put the cutie on a harness or whatever, and let it walk!  That will make for a far happier dog than carrying him/her around.

The girl was actually carrying her dog around on the beach with nobody else around?!  Words cannot express the utter stupidity!  Embarassed

Absolutely not...a sleeping dog can't in any way be considered aggressive.  That's crazy.  Maybe she was the one afraid of big dogs and projected the aggressiveness onto your dog sleeping!  But that's only in her mind, anyway.

I can't imagine...she didn't get her dog used to big dogs beforehand?  The mind boggles!  You can't leave a dog unprepared for that.  What did she expect to do, talk to everyone with a large dog and say, "Get your dog out of here"?  Then after that, I guess she wanted to tell people with smaller dogs to get out, so her dog might not be afraid of competition!  Sarcasm.

How cool that the other people there laughed at her as you were telling her off...she deserved it!

At least you were the catalyst for the ittle dog no longer being afraid of big dogs, for being socialized with big dogs.  Kiss  Good for you!  I'm sure if that little dog could talk, it would thank you for it not being afraid of big dogs any more!  Kiss

I agree that it's a no-brainer to see to it that a little dog isn't terrified of big dogs...particularly if showing or out in public or something.  And as for those strollers...leave them for the cats!  People can be so idiotic.

Would you be interested in learning beading?  Because I'd be happy to teach you.  Kiss  If you like crochet, I think you'd like beading.  Kiss  It's actually quite relaxing to weave beads to make a bracelet or a necklace or something.  Kiss  Handmade bling can be yours!  Wink

Nothing wrong with you being curious.  Kiss  But then does that make me the man in the yellow hat?  Laughing  LOL.

Hugs,
Melanie

Kath,

You've been upgraded!

I would love to be able to create larger size patterns. When you find the time could you please do this for me.

Thank you kindly
