    Seeking popcorn stitch border sweater pattern

    I know this is a long shot but does anyone have the popcorn stitch sweater pattern that was published in the Beehive for Bairns booklet (#96 I think). It is a little sweater with a popcorn stitch border and one button at the top. My aunt knit it for my son 26 years ago and her great grandchild...

    Help me pick my new fridge

    I am in the same boat for a new fridge. I called my trusted appliance repair man and asked for his advice and this is what he said. GE or Whirlpool. Stay away from Samung and LG unless, of course, you enjoy my company ... strictly his opinion but I trust it so I ended up with a GE 28.5 cubic...

    Help! 580 EX Flash Firing but ...

    Thanks everyone - it's my son's camera and he is away at school. He asked the professors and they couldn't figure it out. The local camera store suggested lowering his shutter speed - I've passed that along but it sounds more like a "hot shoe" issue the more you guys explain it to me - it will...

    How is life after abdominal aortic anerysm surgery?

    Use that support, every bit of it. I was the only one who showed up every day after work to visit with my mom. Besides, I was nosy, I wanted to know how she was doing and get the physio and therapy reports and keep her going if she was having a bad day. Although you husband probably won't...

    How is life after abdominal aortic anerysm surgery?

    Your husband may be in a bit of denial - he's probably scared - I know my Mom was terrified but put on her game face for everyone - everyone but me, the oldest and only girl, the one who pulled up a chair and slept in her room beside her - that's when I finally felt her fear and reassured her...

    How is life after abdominal aortic anerysm surgery?

    I just went through this with my Mom, who is 72, in June. She had absolutely no symptoms other than some pain from what turned out to be constipation - for once being full of sh*t proved to be helpful - it actually saved her life. She had a 6.0 abdominal aneurysm as well and was airlifted from...

    Creative Photography Name

    I am looking for a creative photography name for a start up - not that I would be totally against using "Jane Doe Photography" but it seems the catchier the name, the more likely people are to at least give your business a look. So, since two heads (or, in this case, MANY heads) are better...

    Canon vs Nikon

    He has a strong art background - he has been taking art classes all through school with an art specialty in grade 12 and private lesson since he was six. He has always used a camera but this is his first step up to a DSLR.

    Canon vs Nikon

    He'll likely be a little ahead of the game because it is my understanding that several students are waiting until they get to school to purchase their cameras hoping the school can swing a discount closer to the first day of school.

    Canon vs Nikon

    Since I am a "point and shoot" Nikon user, I plan to send my son off to the Learning Centre at Henry's for their three-hour "DSLR 101" course before he heads off to school so he can hit the ground running.
