(My husband says I should have a permanent dent in the side of my right boob!!!!!). I hate circular needles (can't get them under the arm, lol), I also find that my tension changes when I use them.Janicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12465050441931715127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2541083431029092303.post-62908582061250548972014-12-29T21:49:41.999+00:002014-12-29T21:49:41.999+00:00It will be a while yet, I do not knit very fast an...It will be a while yet, I do not knit very fast and have to rest my wrists after 6 rows.Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18406981075860636289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2541083431029092303.post-15470687776323175722014-12-29T21:48:42.660+00:002014-12-29T21:48:42.660+00:00Thank you, Rosezeeta, I do struggle with the tensi...Thank you, Rosezeeta, I do struggle with the tension sometimes with Aran but this seems fine.Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18406981075860636289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2541083431029092303.post-56820768504289507402014-12-29T21:46:44.854+00:002014-12-29T21:46:44.854+00:00My Mum always knitted like that and I have just co...My Mum always knitted like that and I have just copied her, now I do not thin k that I could knit them singly.Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18406981075860636289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2541083431029092303.post-86083009964408961662014-12-29T21:45:34.726+00:002014-12-29T21:45:34.726+00:00B U M, why didn't I think of that, I have abou...B U M, why didn't I think of that, I have about 20 of those in a box, and I know where it is.
