I command you to go to KMart and buy a new computer. (Windows, please!)<BR/><BR/>Just kidding.

And keep it from seizing unto my undies & riding up. I guess I'm not the trustful type. <BR/><BR/>I have never seen the anonymous postings. Which I gather is a good thing!<BR/><BR/>On the Goober again: someone said, "Pick your battles", to which I should add, for as long as possible, pick only those battles you are sure to win. That way you preserve your authority, and later you'll really need it. <BR/><BR/>Congratulations on the shawl being almost finished! Wow.

(That dress is very classic--I like it. But I think there's a law out there somewhere that says that I, specifically, am banned from knit dresses as a humanitarian measure for the rest of the world.)Amy Lanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04885706951931450373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21397483.post-84896872420610085212008-12-03T13:47:00.000-05:002008-12-03T13:47:00.000-05:00Either way, the sizing is a disgrace.

I can understand not sizing a halter dress out to a sixty inch bust, but there are a LOT of designs they do that would look good on larger women and aren't available. Whoever is responsible, I think it's sheer laziness.Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11710658334966849773noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21397483.post-77158570886107408852008-12-03T13:29:00.000-05:002008-12-03T13:29:00.000-05:00Someone posted on a Ravelry group (can't remember ...Someone posted on a Ravelry group (can't remember which now) that it's VK that decides which sizes go in their magazine, not the designer.

I don't like criticism any more than the next person but then I don't publish a magazine and put myself out there and ask for it. You're going to dye that beautiful white doily/shawl blue? But it's so beautiful. I would be awfully nervous about that. But then, you could just knit another.....Donna Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07877384848664758611noreply@blogger.com
