    Look great to me!!

    I've not yet figured out how to knit simple garter ties...so the fact that you can make something tubular with design is absolutely a mystery to me. Well done. I like the two piece design!

    Interesting concept. I always thought that having the parts that wear out be easily replaceable would be a good idea, but had no idea how to impliment it. One of these days I might "borrow" your idea.

    I have yet to actually take up knitting, but my wife(an art teacher) gave me a copy of "The Complete Idiot's Guide to Kitting and Crocheting" that was being discarded by the school, along with yarn and tools, some of which she assures me have a purpose but I have yet to figure out what that purpose is. I haven't done anything with it yet...maybe next winter.
    The grass is greener on the other side of the fence...and it's usually greenest right above the septic tank.

    OK, now that this thread is loosing steam, more photos have fallen out of the computor. First, this is my first attempt at separate hose parts with just a little cabling.



    and a better view of the whole side,



    Also, I hope to have corrected the original picture file corruptions.

    Again, thank you all for your responses and advice on making the next pair even better.
