		<title>$1.67 Slipper Pattern and Baby Booties.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Do you need an inexpensive quick pair of slippers?
Just before Christmas, Mom made some &#8220;I want slippers&#8221; noises.  I also wanted some. My sister and niece wanted some.  I found a pattern for crocheted slippers in an old Workbasket magazine and adapted it.  If you use RedHeart, the yarn cost for a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Increase evenly across row: YouTube Video</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A reader emailed me and wanted to know how to figure out how to increase evenly across a row. She knew she could use one of my calculators, but also wanted an explanation. So, for beginning knitters, I made a youtube video, explaining with &#8230;. toothpicks.  Here it is:

		<title>Fixes to Yoke-u-later.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Joanna dropped me a note saying she was having trouble with &#8220;the calculator for the round yoke sweater&#8221;.   She didn&#8217;t specify the exact page so I assume that she meant &#8220;The Yokeulator.&#8221;
I checked&#8230;. and someone has noticed a bug in the program&#8211; from way back just before I stopped posting.  Anyway&#8230;. I [...]]]></description>

		<title>Back to crafts.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Having neglected the blog for something like 15 months, I suspect I now have no readers. But, I did finish Jim&#8217;s sweater &#8230; a year late.  I then picked up the crochet hook.  I figured: I might as well start posting projects again! I plan to start posting&#8211; but probably once a week. [...]]]></description>

		<title>Jim&#8217;s Fake Gansey: Body Done</title>
		<description><![CDATA[See the big fat neck opening? I finally finished the body of Jim&#8217;s sweater.   
He wanted a &#8220;Henley&#8221; sort of neck opening&#8211; it&#8217;s his favorite. He also doesn&#8217;t like the placket too deep, the depth is about 2 1/2&#8243;.  (I&#8217;ve seen plackets as shallow as 1&#8243; and as deep as 4&#8243; on [...]]]></description>

		<title>Gauge Calculator Plugin</title>
		<description><![CDATA[See this gauge calculator?

It doesn&#8217;t look very exciting, does it?  But, it&#8217;s actually a breakthrough! I&#8217;ve figured out how to write knitting calculator so knitters who blog using Wordpress can easily install a plugin at their knitting blog.  Then they will be able to insert calculators like these in their posts. 
Yep, I&#8217;m [...]]]></description>

		<title>How to figure out when to start gussets.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Jim&#8217;s Mystery Sweater is 13&#8243; long now, which is long enough that I&#8217;m beginning to worry about whether or not I should start shaping steeks, and/or dividing for sleeves.  While knitting, I decided that I would add gussets to provide a bit of room under the armpits.  Adding these  a big more [...]]]></description>
