As far as I know, The Little Britches series is still in print (though other of Moody's books are no longer available.). The link in my post (<A HREF="http://www.barbsbooks.com/pioneer.html" REL="nofollow">Ralph Moody series</A> goes to Barb's People Builders, which sells the books. You have to call or email for prices and s&h. She gives a stock number in paranthesis after the title of each book. Her email contact is barbsbooks@sbcglobal.netLeighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02435811789823712254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26055463.post-62213553951468332502007-10-17T23:20:00.000-05:002007-10-17T23:20:00.000-05:00Where on earth did you get the Ralph Moody series?...Where on earth did you get the Ralph Moody series?!

I must admit I would have carried the yarn too, I couldn't face all that darning!<BR/><BR/>My hands are not perfect, but now allow me to do some knitting, about an inch a day, more on good days. <BR/><BR/>Sorry to hear that you are having gadget troubles again.JudyMachttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04442868795287209622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26055463.post-76974097184618347342007-10-17T08:14:00.000-05:002007-10-17T08:14:00.000-05:00well, they say patience is a virtue:)) after readi...well, they say patience is a virtue:)) after reading about those loose ends I realised that commercial socks have them too! when I looked closer at DS cotton socks - there they were, tiny, short cut-offs... I wouldn't dare leaving them either, but apparently it works even with cotton. I wonder though if they are tied by knots or something similar, but the yarn is too fine to see anything... on the other hand - if you had the patience to knit the socks - a few more threads should be worth it?:))at least now you can be sure that nothing bad is going to happen to them....Woolly Bitshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11961632742998726155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26055463.post-65343225352516108852007-10-17T06:37:00.000-05:002007-10-17T06:37:00.000-05:00You must have a lot of patience!I might have given...You must have a lot of patience!<BR/>I might have given up on the sock half way through, and attacked it with a pair of scissors!cyndyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18006126625281714507noreply@blogger.com
