Just a morning crafter's ping.

Thanks. It was fun, but a lot of work. I mean physical work, a lot of pulling and I have sore hands and arm and back muscles now!

I just read some books over the past few years and thought it through, it really isn't all that difficult. I also have a good sewing machine that can handle the heavy sewing.

I'm doing a swivel rocker next in coordinating fabric, I have the roll here staring at me, probably will get to it after Christmas. For now, though, I have three things to finish knitting for gifts, less than two weeks away! Yikes!

Thanks for this thread, BTW. Nice to know there are some Right Wing Knitters! LOL
