Text of the page (random words):
ink and she mentioned that you don t have to wear the cowl on your head it can be worn as a neckwarmer or shawl type thing neckwarmer that is what i need in the winter months i find myslef hunching my neck down into my sweaters to stay warm how silly when i could have made one of these all along lol then graciela worked on presenting karol s yarn substitution chart i swear if i had known exactly how to read that chart i would have used it many times by now i am so happy that i now understand it and will be printing it out to keep in my binder from here on out you can use it to figure out which yarns are likely substitutes for eachother let s say a pattern calls for a certain yarn but you don t have it and your local yarn store doesn t carry it and your only option is to order it online and pay a ton in shipping or order a lot of yarn that you really don t need to add to your stash to get free shipping lol karol s chart can help you find out if you already have some yarn or your local yarn store has some that can be used in it s place it doesn t account for texture or fuzziness but it can help with weight substitution d really pretty invaluable if you ask me and my friend trudy made her presentation on problems she ran into when starting out with the kiss looms and the differences between the kiss and the kks turns out a lot of people had the same or similar problems that trudy did in the beginning and hopefully the presentation helped the very newcomers either fix mistakes they are making or prevent them all together last but not least was a game of pin the peg on the loom in which players picked a number from 1 to 15 to match up to a picture that graciela had taken in which she had marked off one peg on the loom the person who picked that peg number won the prizes throughout the party were graciela s videos and patterns along with cliff giving away some sets of 2 15 peg boards and his new little guy which is a 4 4 peg modular 16 pegs and as a party favor for everyone that was able to attend i sent out the pattern for the jeannette knitting tote d i had so much fun and was so wired that even though the party ended at 8pm i was still awake at midnight lol i can t wait for next year now oh and here are the mccoy mitts that i made up as a back up plan in case we needed it at the party i am proud of them and think they turned out sooooo nice and angel has already made one and posted her picture to the kiss loom group posted by robin mccoy at 8 40 am 2 comments sunday july 27 2008 getting to know me getting to know all about me bethany is having a blogiversary party and it is game time 1 what was your age when you first discovered your love of yarn what or who was it that introduced you to all that fibery goodness i was 25 it was last september and my friend shannon who lived in north carolina at the time but has since gotten married and the army moved her husband to england so she had to follow is the one that introduced me but she had set out to start me on needles when i got sidetracked by those curious multi colored looms in hobby lobby d 2 if you could sit down with anyone in the world to have a little knit along who would it be only my favorite loomy friends jenny karen bethany graciela trudy and dianne and probably a few others as well 3 what is your favorite comfy place or position in which to work with yarn i mainly choose my rocking chair i need to learn to sew so i can make some comfier cushions but it is a safe place b c there is no room for little kids to squeeze in with me and mess up my projects d 4 like our heroin in the story below do you ever dream about soft fuzzy goodness or how to do a particular technique you d never thought of while awake all the time 5 what type of loomer knitter crocheter are you do you like long involved projects or quickies full of fast satisfaction i like quick projects i find myself getting frustrated if i am taking too long to do a project to me i had no excuse to take 2 weeks to make a sweater 6 have you ever guiltily postponed dinner due to your involvement with a project um too often 7 what is your ultimate goal in your yarn life i want to be famous 8 do you have a favorite snack you like to munch while working with yarn anything that only requires one hand a i can do little nibbling 9 what is your all time most favorite yarn tool accessory that you absolutely could not live without the little plastic case that i use to hold my scissors crochet hooks yarn needles measuring tape stitch markers pins cable needles and stitch holders oh and my pick tool 10 what is your favorite movie moulin rouge 11 what is your favorite book as an adult and what was yours as a child it is and always will be the little white horse 12 what are you working on right now with your yarn a lace scarf that i am designing on the kiss a knitted tote that is on the kiss a sock on my da sock loom another lace scarf on needles 13 is there a special project that you ve been just dying for someone or yourself to design i have a design in my head for a tank top with an intricate cabled design in the center of the chest that will hopefully pull it in and give it some nice shaping around the girls d 14 did someone invite you to join in on the party today you did i am sure i was first on your guest list make sure that all of you go join bethany s blogiversary party that is taking place right now go now or you will miss it posted by robin mccoy at 1 18 pm 3 comments saturday july 26 2008 finished something new i actually finished this i think two weeks ago but forgot to post it whoops i was very proud of the blanket stitch work that i did when stitching in the purse liner i did a happy dance because of that d it is for my sister for her 22nd b day on aug 10th d i used bethany s pattern and you can find it here it is very easy and fairly quick if you have the time to sit down and focus on it unlike me who was trying to do three or four different things at one time lol i have been bouncing from knitting needles to crochet hooks to looms and then back again for about a week or so i have a lacy keyhole scarf on my needles just finished up with three travel neck pillows that i crocheted and am currently working on my first ever sock on my dalooms efg sock loom while the knitting tote i am designing is on my kiss loom does that sound cadd crafty attention deficit disorder to you hahaha ya ll don t forget that the simple sweater class on the kiss loom starts tomorrow in the loom class and lasts for three weeks here is the one that i made from the pattern at the beginning of may d it was literally a simple sweater the only challenging thing was that i was making alterations to the arm length and shortened the body of it i didn t do too hot with picking up the stitches around the collar but that is ok it is still my favorite comfy sweater d hope that everyone taking that class has fun and gains confidence in themselves posted by robin mccoy at 6 36 pm 2 comments saturday july 5 2008 i think this is like the second meme i have done on here i was cruisin my friend s blog and she had a meme up figured i

d if you read this consider yourself tagged or not just let me know in a comment if you decide to do it posted by robin mccoy at 6 21 am 2 comments friday july 4 2008 all work and no play lead to a very boring robin i have been so boring lately lol so busy designing and writing up tutorials and such that i haven t really done any leisure stuff gasp first we ll show the cabled column calamity block that will be starting in loom class on sunday it looks hard but hey you have my nearly undivided attention to help you along what more can you ask for folks d then i have been working on a collection of patterns that i have named the jeannette collection why the jeannette collection you ask well if we flash back to my absolutely awesome off the hook da bomb birthday you ll remember tha t jeannette sent me some lion wool to make myself a felted baguette b c i was all pouty for sending the one i had currently made to my mom who isn t using it what is wrong with that woman p well she should have known that i was going to totally make it all my own and an entire collection at that i still am working on the felted knitting tote but i have the felted purse and wallet finished d i will post a pic later of the liner i have put in the purse it is purty liner material lol oh and these are all done on the kiss loom i made that decision on purpose for the fact that there are so few patterns out there for the kiss looms i needed to create some ok so in the past month or so i have cranked out several tutorials click the title to go to the link for the download of the tutorials cables on the kiss loom cables on the knifty knitter loom yo ssk and k2tog yo for both looms bobbles on the kiss loom and the list is growing and growing for more if you have a request for a tutorial you need give me a hollah and i will add it to the list d my good friend cliff the creator maker of the kiss looms asked me if i would mind making an updated set of assembly instructions since he added hex nuts that can be used in place of wing nuts of course i would have beat myself up forever if i had said no i mean i love these looms i have to force myself to get the specified loom out for a pattern i am following so that i will actually use the other looms lol and i was tired of fighting myself about putting up my kiss loom pieces into the storage box in the family room where i keep all of my other not in use looms i decided to clean out an entire drawer in my yarn storage center to put all my kiss mod pieces i just had to pay cliff back in some small way for this wonderful creation he posted the instructions to the kiss loom group this week so if you need them that is where they are d now i am working on getting the last bits meaning a pretty little butterfly added to the little zippered purse that anke is teaching in class this week it ends tomorrow and then my class starts i will try to post my pics of it tomorrow after i post the pics to the loom class d well it has been a very long day i hope that everyone had a wonderful independence day full of whatever ya ll do on the 4th of july for me and my family we go to the river beach and cookout and chill with eachother all day long d can t think of a better way to do it oh and before i forget i really must brag about myself since i am so very proud i will be submitting a tutorial to the loom knitter s circle online magazine for the fall edition oooooo another tutorial why is this one under wraps well ladies and gents b c i believe i have stumbled upon something that i haven t seen anywhere else on the blogs and tutorials and videos i have watched it is the looming method of doing the needle knitting increase that is commonly called the kfb or knit into the front and back loop keep your eyes open for me in the fall issue with the tutorial and a simple pattern posted by robin mccoy at 6 48 pm 2 comments friday june 13 2008 life is short right now i am telling myself to be strong and quit
