I need help with the Queen's Lace pattern. Rnd 1 yo,k1 repeat to end. Does that mean yo,k1 in first st of 6 then last st of same needle so I get 1 sts for all three needles. I am fairly knew to knitting and I know I can do this project. I just have trouble with how I am reading what the pattern says. Also, when I change needles can you explain what happens to the other sts on the needle as I switch to the new one for working the second needle Are they suppose to unravel a bit. A small video demo would be helpful.

thanks for any assistance.

i got excited too but read at the end i had to buy the subscription to get the pattern....it would be nice to see some really nice free patterns shared with us, NO-ONE these days will share the finer things, just the average or plain yuk patterns, and that is sooo sad......i love the news letter, but how about you throw us a meaty bone and not a dry dusty one once in a while?

I was totaly blown away when I read te article about the Danish lace. Would anyone believe I was born at Eben Ezer Hospital in Brush, Co in 1935. Wow, I guess at age 4 I wouldn't have known about the visit of the Crown Princess Ingrid and husband. I might just add that my mother reported that wet sheets were hung in all the hallways to collect the dust-- yep- dust bowl days!!! Meredith - now in Olympia, WA

I would love this copy of the Piecework magazine but doubt it is ever going to happen, despite my husband buying me an annual subscription back in November as a Christmas gift. I still haven't received a single copy of ANY issue despite frequent emails to them and emails from them ensuring that they will fix the problem. It is 6 months since the subscription was bought. Think twice before you subscribe to this magazine.

I agree with CynthiaM@34...though I love reading Knitting Daily very much, it has turned into a vehicle to sell. sell, sell. Wouldn't it have been wonderful if the Queen's Lace pattern was an actual GIFT today in honor of the royal wedding...but alas, just another push to sell. I'm sure that it exactly what Kathleen is directed to do in her job.

I love lace. The doliy is amazing. I would love to see the pattern.

You highlighted an issue of Piecework magazine in September of 2010. I became very interested and subscribed immediately. November came along and no issue. They promised it would come within weeks. January , no issue. They promised me they would re-issue my subscription. March, no issue...I cancelled my subscription.

I would love to read the magazine..but the service I received was very frustrating.

I'm a great fan of your newsletter. Thanks for all your hard work!

I was pleased to read the article about the Queen's Lace. Anna Marie Jensen was a friend of my maternal grandmother at First Bethany Lutheran Church in Denver, Colorado. I believe my grandmother and Anna Marie Jensen also knew each other at Brush. My maternal grandfather and great-grandfather help found Eben Ezer in Brush, and one of the windows in the chapel there is dedicated to my great-grandfather. I have met Ava Coleman and purchased some of Anna Marie Jensen's patterns from her. I now have a doily made by Anna Marie Jensen that my aunt purchased at Eben Ezer.

Thanks for your articles with a story behind them.

When I first started reading this article I thought "Wow, they're going to give us a beautiful pattern in honor of the Royal wedding!" Then I finished reading the article and thought, "Of course, why should anything change, it's just another article to get you to subscribe to something, AGAIN!" This is sadly what Knitting Daily has become, nothing more than a way to sell, sell, sell. It never used to be this way, at least not completely. So sad. So very sad.
