Join Us for the "ME" CAL!

[Krystal16]

Well, I was talking to you, but it was just chatter, not really asking advice or anything. Just chatter... nothing more.

[JulieKay]

Oh ok, well, I can chatter with the best of them, I was afraid you were asking for a pointer.

 

I was gonna look for Judy, and point at her .

[Misa]

Good morning ladies

 

Favorite cookie for the holidays huh? Well, I do love Mexican Wedding cookies But my favorite to make are good ol' peanut butter cookies I could live on peanut butter cookies

 

Tabby - Hooray for getting for yarn finally

 

Krystal - I'm here just up very late. Stay up doing some stuff with the website last night and didn't realize how late it had gotten. I'm paying the price with a rip-roaring headache but it seems to be fading now

 

Judy - I too saw that rug and this CAL is the first thing I thought of! I could use that right inside my front door

Photo Friday picture of my 3SURR:

In my searching around this site, I've seen links to lots of patterns for the RR. But which is the best one to use for worsted weight yarn?

 

I'm thinking it's the one from SewOnFire, but it has a mistake, and when I clicked on the link for the correction to the mistake, it gave me an error message.

 

Any help for a newbie is much appreciated. Thanks!

[Shaylen]

You are not a dipstick....i always forget that most people don't know them...it was a very old recipe that my great great granny passed down through that years and i don't know where she got it and for some reason men seem to love them the most,thats why they are called Male Cookies.

 

Recipe

Male Cookies

 

1/2 cup butter (1 stick)

Melt in 9" baking dish

 

2 cups light brown sugar, packed

1 cup self rising flour

2 eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla

 

Pour melted butter over brown sugar.

Mix in eggs and flour. Add vanilla.

 

Pour mixture into baking dish and bake at 325 degrees for about 35 minutes.

Cool and cut into squares and roll in confectioners sugar.

That is very pretty...is it heavy??

Julie, I might be overstepping my bounds here, but I believe the type of cookie she refers to have NUTS in them.

[Krystal16]

I'm ashamed to say that I WAS NOT JOKING. I know someone who says she only likes MALE chocolate - the kind with NUTS!

The error is a simple one: if you see where the asterisk is for row 3....move it to the directions immediately before it that say: "skip one stitch". That's where the repeat starts...I just looked at my printout and just finished making one, so it should be right.

 

Have fun:yay

[judianne]

Notice how I'm not adding fuel to the "red-face" discussion here?

Shay - Those cookies sound intriguing I'm gonna have to try them just to see what they taste like. I can't imagine how they would taste but I'm always up for something new foodwise

 

Linda - Fabulous RR!!!

Favourite Christmas Cookies = Butter Shortbread

 

I have not been on for a couple of weeks... but I have managed to complete the Soft Wave and I love it. The photo is not the best as I am eager to show and I took the photo at night. I completed it with an edge that riminds me of the old fashioned rick rack I remember from years ago.

I also have made a pillow for the teacher I have shared an office with for the last 2 years. She is retiring this year.

 

The last one is the baby ripple that I started 2 weeks ago. I am almost finished.

[Misa]

Ines - Wow! You've been a busy little hooker haven't you? I cannot believe you already have your wave done! It's fabulous! Love that pillow as well and the baby RR is great! Wonderful work !

[QueenOfCrochet]

Ines~Beautiful work. :cheer:clap

 

 

Judy~No sucking up allowed.

[busy-bee-lmt]

Ines, those are all just lovely! Great Job!!!! :cheer:yay

Shaylen, yup! This is going to be heavy. Which is fine with me, since I'm always cold, and this one is going to stay mine.

[judianne]

Judy~No sucking up allowed.

 

Who...me?

[judianne]

Ines, your work is beautiful!

I know how you were able to get it all finished...we yak on here too much and you have self-discipline!

[Aussie]

Ines your ripples are beautiful.:clap
