I read somewhere that you can knit faster and with a more even tension knitting Scottish style so I tried it. Even with needles not quite long enough I could knit nearly a third faster than English style. So guess who is upgrading to long needles. It's the sheaths that interest me because then I could knit standing up while the kids are at soccer practise, etc, without the weight hanging on my arms. And I was really surprised to see the shapes of these knitting sheaths. --- Rochelle Sutherland & Lachlan (9 yrs), Duncan (7 yrs) and Iain (6 yrs) www.houseofhadrian.com.au
