I love the soft colors. By the way, I have 3 inches to go on my first sweater ever. You were my inspiration to get going, so thanks. I'll try to post a photo when it's completely done.

Get the patent before somebody steals your idea and becomes the next Bill Gates!

That's pretty ingenious of you. Who else would have thought of such a thing? It makes me think of how my hands use to sweat when riding a bike sometimes, but I never wanted to wear gloves, of course. These would work on handlebar grips, too. What a smart thinker you are.

Ah Marg, you clever gal. This is most definitely the product of a knitting mind. Very well done. I'll take your advice and post some pictures of my stuff as soon as I have time. Take care.

Hmmmm - good idea - these could also be used on the end of floor brushes/mops etc.
