Thank you, it looks interesting.  However, after spending a LOT of
time looking up URLs on the Internet for macrame' patterns and step
by step instructions, I think I have more than enough information
already... and it was free, except for the time I "spent" looking
it up. Good luck with your endeavors!

Gem,
You're a HELLOVA lot more polite than I am!
And, what the heck is ...
well Bob's your Uncle.... what IS that??

On HERE I'm polite... you weren't sitting in my computer room when I
read that.   LOL

I don't have a clue about that "Bob's your Uncle" bit.  As far as
I've ever heard it is a really old saying (likely before my parent's
time even) that never made any sense to me at all.  I don't even have
an Uncle Bob.... I don't even have a cousin Bob for that matter.  ;o)


"Bob's your uncle" means that something is quite easy, once you do something
else. Example: "Just pour all the ingredients into the bowl, and Bob's your
uncle!"

HTH

Being an English person we used to have a reply to the saying.
When anyone said Bob's your uncle to us we used to reply with "And Fanny's your Aunt". I never did get to know what was meant by it but it is many years since I heard either saying. LOL
