Good Morning Bernice, I have always wanted a knitted or Crocheted Black Lab, trouble is that I don't think that I am good enough yet to make one.

Thanks, I'll contact her about a teddy bear. When I was in high school and junior high school, I knitted cats, dogs, and bunnies, but there is no way that I have those instructions any more. I plan to get a subscription to Book Share, because someone said that is the place to look for craft books.
I was a little afraid I might get bored with retirement. Fat chance.
HAHAHAHA!
Bernice

That is a great idea except for 2 things; I never ware yellow, and the other is that my daughter never does either. Now if it was blue, I would love that idea. I want to do something really special, because it is the softest cotton yarn I have felt. It would be great to knit little stuffed animals, but I don't have any patterns for them. I was excited to see books of animals and other cute objects on Blind Mice Mega Mall, but they are flat pictures not 3 dimensional. If someone knows where I can get a book of 3 dimensional objects, I would be glad to purchase it or download it.

Hi Bernice.
You can make a nice tank top out of cotton DK.  It is easy to do, if you knit top down.  You can even knit in a pattern on the front, if you want.
I've put dishcloth patterns into tops with good results.

Are they yellow? And what do they look like any way?

Hi fellow krafters,

An interesting thing has happened to me. When we were knitting a sweater as a group, I had to go up in my needle size. My stitches were too tight. Well, recently, I have been making all of my dishcloths on size 5 needles, because obviously my knitting has loosened up. My cloths come out about 8 to 9 inches across. I'm wondering if I am weird, or if this has happened to anybody else. I don't care for loose lacy stitches, so I'm happy with the way my work feels. 

One time I bought quite a lot of cotton yarn, and when my Mom passed away, my sister gave me all of her yarn stash. Also, I traded a piece of furniture for a friend's yarn stash and her knitting looms because her arthritis prevents her from crafting. I have ended up with a lot of yellow yarn. Six skeins are a very soft cotton yellow yarn. I need to find something special to make with it. I don't want to make a blanket, because it is pretty thin.
And after making a baby blanket out of D K yarn, I said never again. I don't know anybody with a baby on the way, so a baby set is not good. It is too nice for dishcloths and potholders. I'm open for ideas.
