Joyce,
Thank you, but I have a question for everyone who has send a message under
knick picks. I started reading these messages and got the useful info, but
then started deleting them after awhile, question, what did the message
change to and what did I miss, anything important. I have to make this
statement even stronger...I am upset that I could have missed imfo that
might have helped me in my learning, does this mean I must read every email
even if there are many. I do not want to seem insensitive, and make it seem
my life is so busy, but we have had this post over and over again, maybe it
is time for our monitors to start monitoring people and start sending out
warnings on this matter. Can not something so simple be observed for all.
Terry K

Please, please, please change the subject line or keep on topic.  It  is
easy to hit reply, but it is not hard to press shift plus the tab key to
jump up to the subject line and then change it.
 
People like to do searches for certain topics.  How many emails has it been
since the topic of Knit Piks needles have been talked about?  So just change
the subject line please.

At Wool  and Dieworks, they have their rug hooks and punch hooks sticking up

You'd  never know, they stand there erect as can be. It's funny.

Wow! You guys have such great ideas. Keeping the key on a key  chain? Why
didn't I think of that? I'm always losing mine.

I like  the idea of straight needles in a vase. I saw a picture of one where
the  lady had used a vase that was not clear, then taken some of that stuff
you  use in flower arranging, you know, it's kind of spongy  and you stab
the flower stems into it and it holds them in place. Anyway, she used that
st uff in the bottom of the vase and so her needles were kind of sticking up
out of the vase at different angles. It was very picturesque. A nice way to
have function and decor at the same time.
