It is nice to have 1 small thing that I have control of. πŸ™‚

I use this book for the numbers, but I'm making up the color work as I go.

Here's what the inside looks like. When I'm done I'll come back and weave all of those ends in.

I've got 5 different colors. I'm holding 2 stands together on every row. First was 2 black, then 1 black and 1 purple, then 2 purple, etc. πŸ™‚

I don't worry about the cable as much as the needle points and tension.

Absolutely! Go team crafters!

That was just a swatch to pass the time. I started a new sweater yesterday using completely different wool. πŸ™‚

A quick minute of #sweater #knitting on 3/4/26. I had this idea a while ago. We'll see if it works out or not. #knitsky

Not that I'm aware of. I taught myself out of a book that didn't explain how to hold things very well. This is what I ended up with organically.

I have. Lots of them. πŸ™‚

A quick minute of #swatching on 3/3/26. I still haven't decided on my next big project. #knitting #knitsky

My problem is that several years ago I stopped buying anything red. I don't have any red yarn in my stash, and I'm not planning on buying more yarn till I've used up more of what I already own.

They could be, I've had them for +20 years πŸ™‚ They're hollow plastic with some sort of (presumably) metal weight inside.

It very much wasn't! πŸ™‚ Fortunately it was just a swatch, so I won't be spending more time fighting with it.

I try to keep my background stuff subtle πŸ™‚

I agree! If I were making something larger I definitely wouldn't be using these needles.

I did, yesterday. Here it is.

Just a swatch. I'll just make random patterns till I make a decision on a "real" project that likely won't use any of them. πŸ™‚

It's for me and/ or my second kid. We tend to share scarves.
