nappyzone · 29/08/2007 19:14

i have emailed her about making them cropped trouser length - i mentioned you flame thinking with all your clout i might get a discount lol!!! I wish i had paid more attention when my mum tried to get me knitting all those moons ago!!!

FussyGalore · 29/08/2007 20:33

ditto. might get her to teach me again. or maybe just give her a knitting asignment or two. (hehe)

im not a hooge fan of the camo ones. i like the stripes ive got, and the skulland crossbones ones... and ican think of a dozen other wee pics for her to work on, the lucky old bird

btw - my stripey ones STILL havnt dried!!!!!
thats 4 days and counting.

nappyzone · 29/08/2007 20:35

blimey - i wont ever wash mine then! scull and crossbones????? where ????

FussyGalore · 29/08/2007 20:44

thats the primary, wash before the first lanolising. think its the lanolin thats the hard to dry bit. am now seeing why i may need a stash of the damn things!

S&C was on one of the links the fink put lower down.

Oh and thank you to lizarose btw - apols for not acknowledging you!

it is safe to spin woollies in the machine -some people put them in a pillow case first of all to stop them getting bashed about.

I have some custom slots for September so if any mumsnet ladies want to smile sweetly for a custom order and maybe get a discount then contact me.

nappyzone · 30/08/2007 09:30

ahhhh -mmmm, i dont like em, anyway i am gettign some made now - need to measure lardy boy and send of details - yikes! sold half my stash sp have a few bits to go then i have got them for free well you know what i mean!
