TRULY satisfactory "Braided Blues" sweater for my son's Xmas yesterday, done in Ultra Alpaca (Berroco), under the gun, alternating with my knitting three xmas stockings at the last minute. My blog "compose" doesn't work, without I translate every letter I write from a question mark back to a letter। I must find help, for in the quiet of post-Christmas I'd indeed like to try blogging about the knitting life.
