Got a question for The Great Fiber Resouce (aka Arachne). Out there among (amidst?) all of you I'm sure there is an answer to this question that's been there for a long time. I just never had the time/resource to find the answer 'til I found all of you. Today I'm starting a new shawl (knitted lace). The pattern calls for "Fingering Weight" yarn. I'm using my own handspun, so finding this weight yarn isn't the issue. I've been knitting for over 40 years and have run across this term from time to time. What is it??? Since there is a yarn weight with this name, is there a craft with this name? How do you do "fingering"? Or is this is one of the Greater Mysteries?
Happy Birthday to all of us! And happy Anzac Day on my birthday to all our Ozzies, too! Linda, the string-a-holic in Oregon, where it was winter, spring, summer, and now, thank God, it's back to spring rains. We'd not had enough rain to make me comfortable in my house in the woods through summer fire season!
