  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

I do find that here in Australia the sizes of the needles and hooks are totally different.

Don't forget that they've renamed the stitches in the USA too, which can really complicate things if your not aware of it. And don't even try to get bigger than 12ply down here, it doesn't seem to be available anywhere.

I amsoooo jealous of that beautiful new 'big' wool that Lion have brought out. It is so frustrating because I can find knitting needles now in 25mm and 30mm which woiuld be perfect for it, but not the wool. And I'm sure I've seen a catalogue recently that shows a scarf that is crocheted in that big wool and it's gorgeous,... but forget about making your own :( .
