					<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m so excited to introduce Second Chance Skeins! where my love of yarn meets my love of re-use and SCRAP. (Also my love of glitz, sparkle, fur, and anything else that is over the top.) Second Chance Skeins are gorgeous, upcycled art yarn &#8212; similar to some commercial products out there, such as Prism&#8217;s Wild&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve seen two reposts of this today, with multiple comments to the effect of, &#8220;ha ha, I make plenty of mistakes already!&#8221; And this annoys me. Not the original post, as such, but the joking about how &#8220;bad&#8221; we are at what we do. One commenter even said she thought it was arrogant if you&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[The Solution In the previous post, I showed how we need to find a conversion factor (CF), which is just a number that allows us to convert the weight of a ball of yarn to length &#8212; and for that we need to be able to accurately weigh something that weighs very little, in order&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[The Problem How many of us have a partial ball of yarn and don’t know how many yards it is? OK, everyone put your hands down.  Determining how many yards there are in a partial ball or mystery ball is one of knitting&#8217;s universal problems. There are plenty of posts out there, covering a variety&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[What is it exactly about a tangled mass of yarn that makes everyone itch to get their hands on it and start untangling? Well, maybe not everyone.  Usually, the person whose yarn it is has had it up to (wherever) with the tangles. But there are those of us who can hardly keep our hands off it. &#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[All of us yarn aficionados have at some point come up against the &#8220;mystery stash&#8221; question:  How do you figure out what kind of yarn is in that unlabelled ball? The definitive method looks at the microscopic structure of the fiber(s).  However, most of us don&#8217;t have a microscope sitting around the house.  So what&#8230;]]></description>

Immediately, the dreamy dark blue-green color&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[1.  Don’t be intimidated. OK, sometimes this is easier said than done, but in the end, it’s just yarn, and needles.  It may even be expensive yarn, but it’s still just yarn.  At rock bottom, the act of knitting is just pulling loops through other loops.  It&#8217;s been done for centuries, so it&#8217;s not rocket&#8230;]]></description>
