[NFB-Blind-Crafters] long tail help

[carcione at access.net]

Sure Tracy M, if people are willing to wait that long.
I was just going to call Lovette and work on it with her, but, when I tried to do that cast-on, I'd completely forgotten how!  Gues I've been using cable cast-on longer than I thought.

Hi Tracy C.:


Can I do a class on the long tail cast on with your help? I will not be able to do it until after September 23.
