Knitting Tools
Does anyone know of knitsters who still use tools such as knitting belts, knitting sheaths or neck hooks for tensioning the wool? I would love to hear from anyone who does this. Are such tools still available?
Retirement has been a wonderful opportunity and real luxury. It gives me chance to deepen my relationship with Waldo - we now have time for each other. I have time to read, think, be silent, knit, read, think, write and just be me.
