Tuesday September 23, 2008 Cute knitting sheep
I rather like this cute sheep video – although I have to admit that I expected him or her to start over at the end, just endlessly knitting the same jumper and going nowhere, a reminder of how knitting can be all about the process rather than the results.
When buttons go bad
We've had a couple of readers tell us that the buttons they got free with issue 42 leaked brown dye in the wash.
If you have made a garment or other item and attached your buttons to it, please remove them before washing the item. Soaking the buttons in warm water and ensuring they are thoroughly dry before sewing them on may also help.
We have passed both letters and our concerns about dye leakage on to the manufacturers.
