Guest guest Posted January 6, 2004 Report Share Posted January 6, 2004 Pat, This pattern does not completely convince me - what about the tubes, surely you'd have instructions for slipping a few stitches onto a spare needle and then taking them up again (like with a pair of gloves or mittens) and the ball or the dolls head, this is bizarre. Also, I think they should provide a picture of the knitted uterus. I agree about knitting in the fibroids, they SHOULD provide instructions for that, given that around 78-80% of women have fibroids. I think I will write to them. Otherwise we are going to have all these women knitting completely unrealistic uteri that will be no good to anyone.
