"Not impressed after confirming wish to continue receiving your emails I start getting advertising emails again. Which I click to remove. Obviously this is a ruse to get our names back on your advertising lists. Can you please not include this when we confirm? Or is that the price we have to pay to get your pattern emails?"

"This is the 8th or 9th dead link I've hit this morning trying to look at the patterns from one newsletter, i can only presume that the person putting the newsletter together does not have time to check and verify the links."

"New pattern, first time I've seen a picture of it on this site. Unfortunately, there is a problem with the link, when you click on it you receive an "oops" message, that the pattern is no longer available."

"Not sure why you would leave your comment on an entirely different pattern but anyway, the pattern actually specifies and gives step by step instructions on what the chain 5 is- (Bring st back to left-hand needle. K1) 5 times Chain 5 made. Bring st back to left-hand needle. K4tog. Rep from to last 2 (3-1) st(s). Chain 5. Bring st back to left-hand needle. K3 (4-2) tog. Fasten off."

"I was able to get to the pattern after I closed 6 pages just to look at it. That page did not used to be like that but it seems to have gone "commercial" like everything else."

Boye Yardage Counter

Boye Yardage Counter

Do you have tons of half-used skeins of yarn?  Ever wonder how much yarn is left or if it will be enough to start a new project?  Never fear!  Just use this handy device to figure out exactly how much yarn you have, down to the last yard. 

 

What's particularly great about this counter, created by Boye from the Simplicity Creative Group, is that it does its job without being too difficult to use.  Simply adhere its suction cup bottom to a table (or any flat surface) and you're ready to start dragging yarn through the counter.  As you strand your yarn through, the counter does the rest and keeps track of yardage via an easy-to-read display.  Every avid knitter needs to own one of these along with their own row counter.

This is a great item! Who comes up with these fabulous products! I'm always wondering if I have enough yarn to complete a project. There's no way that I'm breaking out a ruler or measuring tape to find out. It's be more trouble than it's worth, most of the time at least. This yardage counter is a brillant idea. I'd like to know how accurate it's supposed to be.

I have a large stash of leftover yarn. This product would be great to calculate the actual yardage for a new project!

Sounds like a really useful tool. Boye always makes a great product. If I don't win it I will buy it along with the Boye stitch counter.
