You always think harder is better. Maybe next time I patrol, I should carry bricks and use a stake made out of butter.

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls, The Inside and Drive), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath. Oh, and help us get Terriers dvds!

Is this the kind of thing she's looking for?

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I am pretty sure there are several in the Good Housekeeping Needlecraft Magazines from the early 70's, but I don't have them anymore.

Actually, I lied- it is the McCall's Needlworks and Crafts from the early 70's She might like this one: [link]

Thrive to spite them

She's looking for something a lot simpler-

something more like this [link] but for an adult.

She's going to make it herself and she's not sure she can handle lacework. The vintage part seemed important, so something that either is or looks vintage.

How is she at sizing up things?

I would still suggest the same magazines. There were kajillions of dresses in them.

I don't know about sizing up. I'll recommend that to Katy who runs the yarn shop.

I'd point the woman in the direction of where to search but she doesn't own a computer.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

She might also consider merging a sweater and a skirt pattern. I know not everyone is comfortable playing fast and loose with patterns like I am, but, especially if you knit 1-piece top-down, you can try on as you go.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Tiny Jayne Hat pattern.

Eeee! I kind of want to see a mini Xmas tree decorated with all tiny Jayne hats.
