Why did you link to your journal? Now the comments will be there and not here.

I apologize for crossposting with my journal; I was new to this community, and to communnities in general, and I didn't realize it was an issue. I see now that it is better to have the comments within the community and I apologize for that.

Almost impossible to read:

1. Pale background
2. Pale font color, too close in shade to the background
3. Tiny, teensy-weensy font size
4. Doesn't line up well if the browser window is not in "maximized" mode

If you think this text is valuable to the group, please re-post here in full.

(And yes, it's not very nice to re-direct traffic from the community into your personal journal.)

I'm very sorry for the inconvenience. Again, I didn't realize it was an issue, and I would have done things differently had I known, As I am starting to realize, it would seem that this text is not valuable to this group, so I won't bother you all by re-posting it. I did not mean to redirect traffic, I just thought it would be easier. I can admit my fault.

Best to start with a size 10 needle? Uh yeah sure ok.

THANK YOU. I was going to say something, and then realized I wasn't where I thought I was. (I didn't notice the formatting issues because I force all journals to display in my style.)

If two people think you're wrong about something, maybe you need to rethink it. I think that knitting with 10's is like knitting with baseball bats, and wouldn't recommend anyone start to knit with anything larger than 8's. I also wouldn't recommend they start with acrylic or cotton, unless there's an allergy issue. So see? We all have our opinions.
