Hi Connie:
I'm afraid in my efforts to make things EASY I may have made things more difficult as I posed the question about Christmas Socks for our soldiers on the BOM thread but then put the directions, pattern and pictures of the project on the "Pictures" thread of the board. If you go to the PICTURES thread you will see downloadable patterns. If you go to the middle of the first page (approx.) there is a downloadable file with a notation "BETTER PATTERN FOR SOCK." Use that download as it's easier to see. This entry is on Pg. 1 Christmas Socks for our soldiers written on Sept. 3, 2008...what I've discovered is IF you remember who posted something you are interested in, you can go back later and click on that person's name by their avatar and that'll take you to their personal page then click on their POSTS. You can go down their particular subject POSTS and find the entry you are interested in. This seems much quicker for me than going through the threads as something posted in PICTURES or BOM can become lost by the addition of new entries in a matter of a couple days. I hope this helps.
