What with the season changing and the weather getting cold this weekend, I have been in a bit of a rut with my knitting, but I have pulled some yarn out of my stash (ah, the joys of a well stocked stash — you must assume the right with the bad you know) and get [...]

It appears that people want this practice even though I have told them it is strange, so here is the form page on my blog and a download link for Ravelry.
