Hi all,

Does anyone know what colour the Canadian troups prefer? We have a friend who just went back to Afghanistan and I’d like to send him a couple of these in the appropriate colours.

Thanks.

A question from Joan Bobb … can anyone help?

I have a question on the helmet liner directions for the decreases. After the 2nd decrease row, the directions say to “continue decreases as established until k2, k2toag. After this, decrease every rown until a total of 7 stitches remain. What does “continue decreases as established” mean? Does it mean to continue the 2nd decrease row or to k9,k2tog and so forth? Also, if you continue decreases to k2, k2tog (that is 4 stitches), how can you decrease every row until a total of 7 stitches remain? I don’t understand.

Desert Tan – there is no specific color number. Try 1208 in Cascade 220 colors.

Unfortunately – the forces are no longer accepting crocheted helmet liners … the gauge was too unpredictable.
