Just testing the waters. Say I did an intensive fingerless gloves workshop, next week, M - F, like a knitalong with instructions.

Say the class costs I dunno, $12, let's make it inexpensive. Get instructions on monday, work together through friday, friday all finished. give as gift or keep for self.

anyone interested? should I smack this together? too busy? these are easy, and would look like the ones on my hyenacart:

wrisque wristlets?

If I get eight people I'll run the class. Let me set it up in my store. I'll share a very basic easy beginner pattern, and the gusseted pattern I'm selling in the boutique.

Would there be sizing info for men as well? I'm thinking my dad could use these for his arthritis.

I'm all signed up and I'm going to make these for me...she said with a slight giggle and disbelief in her voice.

I WANT to make them for me, but I think I am going to give them to my SIL for a Christmas present. Pam, when will the class conclude? That will be my deciding factor on who gets them. ;)

I'm in. I have most of a skein of my andromeda leftover from my clap and I think matching fingerless gloves would be perfect!

I'm in. A friend wants in too but she wants to know dates.

It'll be next week M-F.

Yes, we'll do custom sizing.

Dang, I better get busy with the lessons! Looks to be a go!

Man... I know of a perfect yarn I wanted to get for the project, too but I guess I will settle for wool. And that means these will be for my SIL, who won't mind a bit!

Here's the yarn I will get for me when I make them for myself.

Here's a silly question... how much yarn is needed? Is 3,5oz/100g enough? Maybe I could use some of that extra sooooooft malabrigo yarn!!! :D

let me go weigh mine...

my andromeda wristwarmers are 1.1 ounce. I think 3.5 ounces should be fine. you get five stitches per inch?

I 'think' you have to be approved--- and then you will be able to see the posts under that class - and the pattern is in there too....

Meredith
12-19-2005, 01:04 PM
And the class will be listed where? So I will know when I have been approved to get in there ... can you tell I an antsy to get these done as they are my SIL's Christmas present from me! LOL! I am making her these and a matching cell phone cover.

What makes you think you can walk away from your computer? Come on. You have a business to run, woman!

Thanks, Pam! I wasn't trying to sound too obnoxious. They were honest to goodness I don't know what I am doing questions.
