For reference, I either hold both yarns in my right hand or one in each hand. Pls save me from throwing this current swatch across the room…

Hey #knitsky! Fave needle set up for small circumference (think sleeve or mitt) colorwork? <16” circs make me want to set things on fire, but I hate how often I have to move needles and re-tension yarns with DPNs or magic loop. Two circs make too much noise. Is there a unicorn method I’m forgetting?

Is anyone actually good at shaving their legs? Please say no so I can feel better about my own ineptitude.

My love of jumpsuits and my of chronically delaying going to the bathroom are not a good pair.

10 hours later: the math is done and the pattern is written for the smaller gauge. Go tiny or go home, right?

lol it pulled in as the swatch dried. 6.5 sts per inch. Please let me just lay down on the forest floor and slowly be absorbed by the moss

Working on a Goldilocks project. Bottom swatch is the right gauge, but yarn is too round for lace. Other worsted in stash that’ll work? No.
Top is the fabric I want, but small gauge might be scary. Similar thicker yarn in stash? Yes! Still available? No.

Might be a 6 sts/inch cardi on its wayβ€¦πŸ˜‚

Anyone have favorite dupes for Adobe creative suite? One time fee is fine, but I’m extremely tired of paying a mortgage payment yearly to use this software. Wish I could still boot the CS3 I own on CD!
