theartofmegan I've been promising my fiance a blanket for about 4 years now, but have never quite gotten around to it. It's pretty time consuming to make blankets, and I usually try to keep up on keeping my online store stocked. Eventually I'll actually stick to my...

theartofmegan We went to Maui almost 2 months ago, and I came back engaged! We stayed in Kihei, and went all over the place on the west shore. It was beautiful, and I'm just so excited that my parents have a timeshare there, because I want to go back as soon as possible!

theartofmegan Nah, no elvis for us, we're getting married in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. That's partially why i'm making my dress, since it's hard to find a dress that won't drag through the sand.

I prefer wood knitting needles, because they are easier to learn with and are warm. However, I like the speed of aluminum (not to mention the click, clack). Wha is your favorite type of knitting needle and why?

knitting

needles

7 responses

theartofmegan I like bamboo needles the best because they are smooth, easy to work with, but still have just enough grip to keep me from dropping loops. However, my nana had a pretty large selection of aluminum needles, so that's the majority of what I have to knit with....

theartofmegan I love to knit, though I am definitely still a beginner. I like to knit hats, mittens, gloves and fingerless gloves, scarves, toys, and simple sweaters... usually tank sweaters. More often than not, I learn how to do a project by reading a few patterns...

theartofmegan Well, I guess it kind of grosses me out, really. Number one, as everyone else has said, the money spent on those trees and all the live flowers, fruit, and such that they use for decorations could be better spent making gift baskets for families in need....

theartofmegan In the long run, making my dress is looking like it will save me at the very least $500 dollars. So technically, I'll be saving quite a bit of money.

theartofmegan I've never heard of wedding dress fittings bringing bad luck! Besides, how would I get it to, well, fit me if I didn't. All I know is that it will probably be a little difficult with not letting my fiance see my dress before the wedding because we live...

theartofmegan Nancy, that's an excellent idea! The pattern I'm using has a shorter skirt version, so maybe I'll make a little cocktail dress with the same bodice style in a cheaper material so I can get the hang of it. :)

theartofmegan I'm too afraid to waste my precious material! However, I do like to do random embellishment with my sewing machine, especially on purses and wallets.

I'm aware that a lot of users on myLot are either in college or already out, so I thought I'd ask the community exactly what i should expect of life in college.

theartofmegan Keep in mind that chances are, you WILL change your major. My biggest suggestion is to crank out as much of your general education as possible before diving into any major-related classes, or you could end up wasting time taking classes you won't even need in...

theartofmegan We've moved about 14 hours away from our families in the past year, so my fiance and I will be spending the day alone. I'll probably make a pot roast and some yummy veggies, and probably some potatos and a nice dessert. We'll just spend the day together with...

theartofmegan We really don't have a single thing outside yet, and I probably won't put anything up except for the wreath, but I understand how you feel. I don't have a front yard this year, and the house is a rental, so I don't want to go poking holes in...
