Excuse me, Suzy, but I didn’t lift any text except that which is quoted and attributed. I did paraphrase the information from the book Twined Knitting, but I also did some research on my own to add to the information I got from the book. There’s a large difference between paraphrasing and plagiarizing, and I suggest you point out to me which passages I “left out of a book” before you make any accusations. All the writing on this page is my own. In my earlier twined knitting entries, I mentioned that I was going to try to transcribe some of the information from the book as it is out of print, but I have been very careful to avoid quoting unless it’s clearly indicated.

Nice to left text out of a book isn’t it and call it your own. Be careful of that. People get sued for less.

Thank you so much for the very interesting history lesson. I’m very intrigued by twined knitting and have bought both a book and a booklet (the booklet is from Yarn Barn in Kansas). I have two other socks on the needles, but when they are soon completed, the twined socks will begin, my first try at this very very interesting technique.

Again, thanks!

Also, I may be going to Sweden this year for business and would enjoy visiting the locations you mention!
