Willie Warmer – Hot tips!
February 4th, 2007, 5:19 pm
…that’s a hot tip as in “hints ‘n’ tips “.
Tsk!! How could you think such a thing!
Much hilarity at my knitting circle this morning – one of our number (who will remain nameless) is a little fed up with being teased (ribbed??) by a male colleague about her knitting. He frequently demands to know what she has made for him.
Her revenge will be to present him a delightful pink willie warmer as publicly as possible

She has followed a pattern from Knitty.com in delightful pink yarn.
Sorry- no photos!
The hot tips are….
- Use bigger yarn and needles than the pattern unless you want to insult the recipient.
- Don’t show a bunch of ladies your work in the middle of Starbucks unless you want hoots of laughter and the attention of the entire coffee shop
- Don’t use a cable cast on ..to quote, “there’s no give in it and you’d never get anything in it!”

Oh dear, this gave me a good giggle.
Sorry I’ve no idea how to put photos up, I usually just wimp out and link to my blog.

Many Thanks
