[Nfb-krafters-korner] subject lines need to reflect current post, please

Tue Nov 15 23:37:01 UTC 2011

Joyce,

I've been tempted to request the same thing, "subject related directly to
posted message) but because I am not a moderator, I thought I'd keep my
mouth shut or in this case, fingers silent.

Please try to change subject in subject lines when changing topics.   Less

I finished knitting my snowman this weekend.  His scarf  and hat are so 
cute. 
I did not like the black button eyes that I got to  put on him/her.  I 
chose 
to go and purchase small .25 inch (6.35 mm)  black pom poms to use instead 
for the eyes and buttons down the front of  the snowman.  I cut an triangle 
out of orange felt to glue on as the  nose, and I am using pipe cleaners 
for 
the mouth.

5-8 small buttons depending on how you choose to  use them: eyes, mouth, 
front of snowman.
The i-chord is for the  scarf.   You could use a chain, but it is not as 
wide 
as a scarf  looks.  I used a 5 peg loom and made my scarf and the width is  
nice.  The same color will be used for the hat on the snowman.   Deep rich 
colors look nice.  I used evergreen because that is what I  had on hand.  I 
think red, maroon, Navy colors would also look  great.

The snowman is about 8 1/2 inches tall.

Cindy, will the yarn be worsted weight?
About how many buttons  will we need?
What will the I cord be used for (in order to decide on  color)
About how big will the snowman be?
