Women should be paid a wage for bringing up children!!!

savemorethanface I do agree - I stay at home because I don't want my children to grow up in daycare. In Australia we have a parenting payment (government allowance) which is not much and cuts out when my partner earns over a certain (quite small) amount. I am also entitled to...

Knitting as a form of Meditation?

nancygibson @nancygibson (3736) • France 30 Dec 06

I was sneakily doing a bit of knitting at work at 7.30 this morning ( I was in before everyone else), and it reminded me of just how soothing I find the repetition, the counting of stitches, watching it all grow oh so steadily...

savemorethanface I do find that - it is definitely as much about the action as the result. I find it very soothing to knit - especially when I am knitting with a fabulous feeling and coloured yarn. Blues and purples are the best I find for me. I do love the red and yellow hues...

savemorethanface I haven't been able to get the bestcashrewards site to work properly -- I understand the concept and it seems good but the rooms don't work -- perhaps I need to go on the community and ask a few questions. I have found a few free downline builders that may...

What is your favourite yarn to knit or crochet with?

nancygibson @nancygibson (3736) • France 26 Dec 06

I prefer to use pure wool whenever possible, if I am going to take time over a project I would rather use a natural fibre and I favour locally produced wool, but I also have friends who work exclusively in man made yarns. I often...

savemorethanface I love mohair - I am a bit of a mohair fanatic, I have stacks of it at the moment and no time to knit up any of the projects in my head. My favourite is this lightish blue that is so silky soft and luscious. Give me wool - any wool as long as it is soft and...
