    Can't wait to use the tracing paper method. My knits always get stuck in the beginning & end! Thanks for the hot tip Miss Cutie Mimi!

    Thanks for the tip about the tracing paper. You saved me a lot of trouble with knits. I always thought I was doing something wrong. Now I know a new trick. Great tutorial! Love your blog and your work.

    Thanks Mimi ~ funny, I just started using that paper last night because I was putting buttonholes into a soft, slightly stretchy fabric.

    I really want to make this skirt with a floral print on lowpricefabric.com but to my surprise they don't ship to Hawaii... oh well I'll have to pay
    8.99 per yard for a similar knit here.
    Aloha, Mimi and thank you for all of your help it is very much needed. I am learning to get along with my babylock machine... LOL!

    Had a little moment when you gave us the tracing paper nugget. I had to call my mommy & tell her that awesome trick. Now you've got me teaching the master a few things. LOL
