The data gathered is highly valuable, I am sharing it here exactly as it was presented in 2008 and 2007 by its author

Thank you for preserving this valuable document. It gets asked for over and over!
I did not receive a reply when I tried contacting Daisyknits. If there is any objection voiced by the author at any time of my share here I will act accordingly. I am sorry to hear of any health concerns, hope they get resolved as quickly and painlessly as possible.
Thanks for posting this – I did query Daisyknits in August and was told there were health issues, hence the website being down. It was indicated that it was temporary.
