Comments (0)With thanks to TheHenry who went thru various Knot Books, it would seem that the Grant’s Looper (aka/ K-Tel Knitter) base row is the same as The Chain Sinnet
can be seen in the Ashley Book of Knots, The Chain Sinnet #2868, on page 472
The Looper/Knitter is being used not unlike a fid is used in ply split braiding.

Others have suggested it is not unlike NalBinding, and I think I would have to agree
So many names, all for the same techniques, no wonder I am “fused”

Comments (1)According to the folks over at TechnoSailor, Everyone is guilty of ego propping now and then. Some people are more guilty of the practice than others. Below is a test that will analyze how important you think you are.
I admit being pleased that 9 of 10 Sorting Hat Quizzes, place me in Ravenclaw even if only by a few points over Gryffindor (and the tenth was Gryffindor as well)
And much as I don’t know exactly why the Ya-Ya Sisterhood name for Wheat Carr of Queen White Thunder makes me uncomfortable
Or, even that I can’t figure out why I am, accord to What Kind Of Yarn are you… thinks I am Shetland wool Shetland Wool
Still, it is the results from TecnhoSailor that have pleased me the most.
Try it and see what kind of Netizen you really might be at heart.
Peace of the Season
