  • 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

It's the first time I've tried anything more difficult than a hat, but it's going well so far. I'll post updates, possibly including pictures, on this thread.

Here's a picture of the monkey so far (*crosses fingers that the picture works)
I didn't know knitting could be so exhausting!

Monkey update- I've just started on the face- I'm wondering whether the nose should be brown or black. It's keeping me awake at night! :eek:

The monkey is finished! I'm pretty happy with the way he turned out, considering it's a first attempt.
Now I just need a name for him...any suggestions, anyone?

I got it from a knit-your-own monkey kit called 'The Little Experience'. I'm told it's aimed at people from 6 years old upwards, but I don't care! :D
^_^ Hey...whatever works, I always say. I've been searching on the internet for a free pattern, but I don't really like any of them. I'll have to break down and purchase one I think.

I've decided to name the monkey Jannick Thaddaeus Sylvester. He deserves a long and grand name, I think.
That's a great name. :thumbsup: Very distinguished. :)

What's your next project going to be?

Possibly more monkeys. My friends have suggested a Robin Hood monkey, or 7 monkeys representing the 7 Deadly Sins. Either way, I'm going to be very busy.
