[Nfb-krafters-korner] FQ: Crafts on the go

[River Woman]

the daughter who is coming to dog sit has 7 dogs of her own - she rescues 
them at a local shelter, gets older ones and gives them a happy home.  Her 
husband will dog sit those 7 while she comes here to watch our 2 dogs and 2 
cats.

thanks for the tip about the hand sanitizer, too. That is a great idea.

I have started hand washing every garment I knit - they smell so good after 
they are gently washed and blocked, plus they have a nice drape to them 
after washing and blocking, too. And, it seems to get rid of the sizing or 
stiffness in the fabric and they look so much nicer - makes the knitted 
stitches flow into a lovely fabric.
