  2. Thanx for showing us your dolls and the knitted items you've made for them. I too am a doll collector so enjoyed watching that:o)I TOTALLY agree with your opinion about knitting and shopping. Oh my it's quite obvious that the writer of the mag article does not knit or crochet.And to suggest a partner?wow.Anyone i've ever had with me gave me reasons why to BUY whatever i was debating on.Yes an enabler for sure. One last line..Jadee i subscribed to simply knitting and was wondering:did it really take 12 wks. to get the subsription going?ugh! if so i won't start getting mine until late june early july.eerrr!
