Maybe I should crochet us a line?!?!<br /><br />Terry _ I knew you'd come through for me. I do need a base layer (though they're warm enough for spring) and prefer wool just for those reasons. I don't mind paying a bit more, they last longer. The synthetics last a season before I have to throw them out because I can't get scent out of them. I going to try your suggestion.<br /><br />It was a bit of a lazy hunt last night, I just expected to see something because of weather conditions and activity. The animals fooled me again!<br /><br />Colette - See? I lose concentration when you're not here to set me straight. <br /><br />I have nearly finished the left front of the jumper now. Amazing how a challenge can motivate you.

If I had of know about that bet I would have knitted whilst you hooked!! Could have split the winnings!<br /><br />See you soon and it was a pleasure to show you haw to hook.<br /><br />Me xxColettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05918092647201479349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8884610467022224157.post-29080511792222703662010-04-02T20:15:24.752-07:002010-04-02T20:15:24.752-07:00Jennifer, Thanks so much for the mention.

They are the bees knees and do not hold body odor like capilene. They're not cheap although they'll last a long time I suspect. As for your potholders, your first one is looking mighty fine. Sounds to me like you're gonna win the bet. Better luck on your next outing in the high seat!Terry Scovillehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03921175577588776380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8884610467022224157.post-20498194069892590732010-04-02T15:59:50.472-07:002010-04-02T15:59:50.472-07:00Niche market for ladies hunting clothes...indeed. ...Niche market for ladies hunting clothes...indeed. I typically have to buy youth sizes to get pants and sleeves short enough for my frame. I would gladly pay more for a better fit. So you are becoming a hooker?! ;-) Yes, crocheting is cheaper than therapy....enjoy the process.Donnanoreply@blogger.com
