Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch

or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

The winner was the one in the middle, also shown on third pic. I was pleased it was a staff member rather than me as she got a bottle of wine and half a day’s holiday.

Great work Silvershadow and Meglet!

I'm in 'finishing off' mode at the moment, adding sleeves to a gilet I knitted a few years ago. After that I have a few too many projects lined up, choosing is going to be difficult!

Does anyone who has knitted an entire sock have any ideas for entry-level sock patterns?

I've made a few pairs of these ravelry.com I think they were my second ever pair of socks, so I reckon they're fairly accessible.

My first ever pair was something like 'falling leaves', and was super simple but came up too big for me so I gave them to a friend.

I've used the Winwick one too:



First tip: do quite a few rows of rib on straight needles at the start so it's easy to check it's not twisted before joining and knitting in the round...

Those are all lovely, Meglet.

I've just bought a book of Corinne Lapierre patterns for felt Christmas bits and bobs; I fancy doing something which involves sewing by hand.

I’ve picked up quite a few fat quarters of Christmas fabric, with the idea of making placemats and some Scandinavian stars (I’ve done one star to see how they worked). I have a feeling I will run out of time though.
