Coverting knitting patterns to crochet patterns-There are so many great knits, and not so many crocheted-even just some basic patterns. Also I love one-piece patterns (hate seaming)-the best of which I found through your site-it was for a baby jacket and someday when I get up the courage will try to convert to adult size. Thanks for the best site!

Oh, I’m not going to discuss politics at my site! I prefer knitting sites to be about knitting. I know aren’t visiting here to learn my position on the topic I used to blog about at a political blog. (And the people there didn’t go to learn how to cast on and join circular.)

The blog aggragators would be something off on another page the way the current “my favorites” and “machine knitting” blog aggregators are off on another page.

In fact, one of the reasons I’d like to categorize the types of blogs and make separate aggregator, is that way, people who are interested in finding (or avoiding) certain “types” of blogs would have the information. If you want to find a funny blog, go to the “funny ” list of blogs and surf those. Want to avoid the political ones? Stay away from the political ones? Just stay away from the political aggregator.

The alternative is to present one big ” knitting” aggregator. But, then you can’t know ahead of time it’s 50% politics. (Although, right now, few are political. I think most of the politics appeared just before the election, right?)

Please don’t include politics! I abandon blogs & sites that mix politics with knitting. I find them irritating in the extreme. When I need to politically vent or check out what’s going on & what both sides are saying, I go to a political blog or site. When I visit a knitting blog/site, that’s what I want to read about not whether someone loves/hates Bush or thinks Carl Rove is a political or evil genius. Stick to what you’re good at. Want to talk politics? Start a political blog don’t pollute what the good thing you’ve got going!

Most blogs publish feeds. I found your (Sonja’s) feed easily because we both use word press, and their default feed URL is easy to find. (Look at the bottom of my page you’ll find the letters “RSS”. Some of the other sites don’t automatically post the address of the feed so I have to guess.

I didn’t think of KALs! That category needs and aggregator.
