I also invested in some large spool threads to make use of the old overlock, which I discovered is CLOSE to impossible for me to thread at night! It was getting late and I kept thinking to myself, "THIS is why they've invented 'easy-thread' machines". It's ok though... I finally serged my way through the 'alterations' pile and I made a little black top, among other things. Since I've never actually threaded one of those newer easy to thread serger machines, I completely forget about what I might be missing once I start sewing with this robust bad boy.

Last, but not least, I finally got a set of Denise Interchangeables... a very large Denise in a Della Q Double, to be precise. I thought about purchasing the knitting set by itself and then getting the Tunisian crochet set at a later time, but you get a few extras with this big set that you can't get if you buy them separately. I have not been able to put down my needles since I got it!!! I tend to knit tightly in the round, so I really appreciate the smoothness when transitioning my stitches around these circular needles. I've already finished two things and am on my third project. A neat trick I discovered is that 'picking up stitches' is 1000X easier when you swap your knitting needle tip with a crochet hook tip of the same size, pull your new stitches through and then switch it back to a needle tip when you're ready to knit them... Take that, you stitches!
