Hey there fellas
I've just moved (back) to Ann Arbor Michigan to go to school.
Anyone in Ann Arbor out there? Know any knitting fellows here?
Thanks,

When you buy yarn in skeins or on spools, do you ever wind into balls by hand?

I wouldn't deign to buying yarn in a skein or on a spool. Just call me "Swift Hank."

Yes, so it will fit better into my yarntainer, bag, or work area.

Only when the skein or spool gets near the end and the yarn loses stability.

Where's your favorite place to knit?

I'd love to hear about your favorite place to knit. For me, there's nothing more better than sitting on our front porch swing knitting and listening to the world go by.
