The Jimmy beans link doesn't work nor does the square mitts(?)--well something mitts. I didn't test the Paton; I'm not joining another place. Della is fine.

2. presto-chango baby sweater - http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/presto-chango
3.Patons triangle shawl, must sign in to see it. http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/libr...triangle-shawl
4.Della, links above in OP.
5. the spider socks http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/the-gardener
6. lusekoftesque mitts .http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/libr...fte-sque-mitts,
7. sweetheart socks http://www.knitty.com/ISSUEw11/PATTsweetheart.php

Yes, much better. I actually joined Patons to see that shawl and they wouldn't let me in so having it on ravelry is much better. A mod could definitely fix your poll; if not, can you edit the "non blue" links so it's easier for people to see? (BTW, that garden pattern would make a really pretty afghan or pillow I think.)

Oh I see, the poll is all the way up at the top of the page. They changed the look. Odd!

the garden socks are #5, actually they are called the Gardener Socks. The Spider socks.

I'm thinking that the experienced knitters can "knit" us through anything!

I'm here to take advantage of their vast fiber experiences!
I have faith in their teaching skills!
I want to learn new skills!

And remember, it's not required that you give it away!

"Just sayin'!"


-30 degrees this morning!

WIHH, what pattern are you talking about, I’m toooo dumb to know a hard pattern from an easy one, at this point. I just jump in head first, then realize, it is -5 in January and the water is frozen 6” thick. Ouch, save me……...please………before I vote!

You are right WIHH...the gardener socks have some very difficult stitches for somebody fairly new to knitting and to combine that with being new to socks as well could be very discouraging for the person knitting them.

So let's see if I'm understanding this. The poll at the top of this page is screwy so you reposted the numbers and the links that are supposed to correspond to the above poll? So we pay attention to the links next to the numbers in the body of this thread, then go back to the top and vote appropriately?

Am I understanding this right? I'm sorry I don't mean to make it more complicated than it is. I'm just really tired (work emergencies) and I want to vote. I'll come back later

Yes Marchwind, I think you got it. My links dont all work in the actual poll.
So, I rewrote them in the same order a couple posts down.
Between those 2 posts you SHOULD be able to figure out what is what, then vote in the poll.

My pleasure, you all are the greatest! Think I have it fixed, give it a whirl and be sure I have right links there and if there's any problem, just let me know.
