That way when you have made about 15 rows and THEN see that you messed up the pattern in row 7 you can just take it off the hook/needle and rip it out and start all over again!
Easier to remove loops than knots!
Besides knots are macrame! -
The interesting thing to remember with crochet and knitting is that you are pulling loops through loops. Now with crocheting you are making a slip knot loop and pulling other loops through it. simple

Okay folks here is the sad news........she made the pattern and keeps it in her head. So no passing it on. She (like I) is very creative but does not always write patterns down. So when one is requested she just builds it from memory.

Okay furbabymom, when I did it this time it took me to my sign in too. I don't know what I have done wrong. The picture is of a cradle that she made with macrame and it is gorgeous! Hope I can get this figured out to share with you guys.

That is strange. When I pulled it up it showed the picture. I opened an extra tab to put it in.
I just clicked it and clicked open and it showed the picture.

I hope this picture comes through. My girlfriend made this for her grandson. I am waiting on the pattern now.
open the pic and see.

Such wonderful ideas! Thank you so much for sharing.

A lot of this sounds so good any way. I remember soup beans (pinto) and corn bread and if we were lucky fried taters.

You can ususally purchase it through your local pharmacy as well. -
I am definately adding this to my homemed notebook. Yes you have done a great service with this. THANK YOU!

Mother, thank you. That is the first time I had heard of tea tree oil or mayonaise used for the treatment. I had heard of vinegar (to loosen the adhesive produced) and olive oil rinses.

Could some one explain to me the use in prevention of lice infestation? Please?

It was really interesting to read his letters, they were so foreign to us who still had everything. He said his children hadn't had chocolate for 3 years. They shared a pencil stub for school work. They hoarded any paper they could get.
His teenage daughter had eye problems and had to enter the hospital BUT there was no medicine. His wife had to go from pharmacy to pharmacy trying to get enough meds. to help.
I spent over $100 sending him a box with all kind of things, pencils, paper, oil, chocoate, gum, etc. and they said it was like Christmas. His wife sent some flower seeds in a small packet she'd folded out of paper and sent them as a thank you. I thought it was so nice of her when they had so little. When I planted them in the spring, I was in hopes of something I'd never seen. They were yellow marigolds.
We've lost contact through the years and I'm sorry but I can't find his address or letter anywhere. I can't imagine where they went but gone they are!
Reading things like this reminds us of how fortunate we still are. and what we can look forward to when shtf

I will be interested to hear about the skin tags. My best friend has inherited a terrible situation with them.

How do you treat for the prevention of lice? -
When I had a jaw tooth crack and give me enormous amounts of pain i applied the oil on the outside of my jaw and massaged it in to get relief until i could get to the dentist. Worked wonders.

I have taken the jug that cat litter comes in and cut off the bottom at a good heigth to store the games for playstation. the top is the right size to make snow bricks. cut the tops off some others to use them as small toy storage for the kids and a scrap catcher for my craft projects.
