I hope this helps to calm your tummies: unless you let the tap run for a while, the water you drank this morning was already in the pipes in your home and very, very unlikely to have any contamination. No poop-water.
We’re still alive so far! 🙂
I was excited to learn about Hair Story. Always looking for new ways to keep my hair fresh. However, when I went to purchase the product, I had to register, which was no biggie. Until I discovered that it wouldn’t let me register when I unchecked the box that said:
“I agree to allow Hairstory to use my personal information to support me in having my best hair, and for advertising and/or promotion, information about products and services including newsletters and direct marketing campaigns”
I don’t want my personal information shared by any company and have sever reservations about a company that won’t allow me to purchase from them if I opt out of them sharing my information. I will not be purchasing their products.
Peggy – HairStory wants your email to send you info and promotions about HairStory products, they aren’t sharing or selling your information.

I do all my sleeves 2-at-a-time.
Went this way with a toddler pullover, as well as with my big-huge-long-heavy-bulky cardigan. When it was my cardigan I worked on the sleeves shortly after separating them, as I knew the process includes lots of turning (of the item) and the cardigan was planned to be quite the piece (it is almost 1.5k”g in weight. That’s over 3 lb you American 😉 )
For me, anything that is “two of” should be knitted at the same time. first because it is boring to finish something and start over again exactly the same thing and second, when it is two-at-a-time is is mindless. no need to count rows. Very easy with lower risk of errors.
I had previous experience with socks (two at a time) so I came prepared for the challenge when I started knitting sweaters. I love it this way.
