My friend's birthday is coming up, and he wants me to make him things instead of buying a gift. I've made him a hemp bracelet before that he loved, so I made a new one with a fancier design.. but I want to send more little things...

petalpirate Great topic! I've been looking for some handmade gift ideas for men. It might not be as fancy as what you're looking for, but hemp jewelry has been a hit with my man friends, especially bracelets. If you use some of the thicker cord, it's pretty easy to come...

Has anyone made anything on the small blue knifty knitter? I want to make wristbands as a gift for a friend, and I'm kinda pressed for time, so I thought this would be a good way to, rather than using needles. I'm just afraid the...

petalpirate Yeah, thanks! I made it my primary goal to learn how to use double points by the end of today. After reading various articles and tutorials online and a couple of videos, I successfully cast on and completed my first round. It got easier after the first few...

petalpirate Well, I ended up going ahead and trying it out on the knifty knitter today, and the tube was definitely way to big for a wrist, so I'm not sure how you can make mittens on it. I'm going to attempt to learn how to use double pointed needles again. As far as...

petalpirate I've tried using double pointed needles a few times before.. and also failed miserably each time. My original plan was to knit them flat and sew the seam if the loom ended up not working out, but maybe it's time I gave the DPNs another shot. Thanks for...

I know a lot of people here have heard about ChaCha by now, and I've seen the growing interest of people wanting to become Guides. I'm pretty confident with the application now and am ready to start my network... so I have 8...

petalpirate Thanks for responding, but why don't you like ChaCha? Are you talking about as a job or as a search engine? ChaCha is not a paid to search/paid to surf site in the sense that Zotspot is. With ChaCha, you download their application and assist others with their...

petalpirate I know, it is a shame that they aren't accepting international members because I know a lot are interested. I don't know of a program similar to ChaCha that's available for international users, but you could always search for internatioinal GPT sites, where...

I've always loved poetry. I mainly admire the works of others, but I still love to try to write my own. Tonight, for whatever reason, I developed a renewed vigor for writing, and set a goal to start writing a poem a day. It's...

petalpirate Yeah, I lurk around all of the online hooping communities, but I'm too lazy to post myself. :P I bought my first hoop from bodyhoops.com, but then I bought a giant roll of tubing at Home Depot to make more. I think it's easier to find the tubing during the...

petalpirate Yeah, thanks. I already have it favorited. :) I like some of these patterns, but I'm not having much luck finding any others. I found a few other sites, but most of their patterns are the same ones on the Provo site.

petalpirate That's funny, I just ordered this pattern yesterday. :) I'm not a belly dancer myself though (I'm a hoopdancer!), and I'm using it to make a sorta tribal faery costume for the renfest here.
