Accidentally
Right, so, the stars... The stars and their nice, tidy, orderly, geometric shapes... The ones that look like stained glass... A few of them may sort of turned into coloring pages. Accidentally you understand. It's a known risk. These things happen. Any of you the sort that might be interested [...]
Improvements
The hat improvement continues. Now all I have to do is run each column of purl stitches down to the cast on, then work them back up as twisted stitches instead. I'm doing it on the inside of the hat, because that way I'll be working with them as knit [...]
Clarify
So when someone says 'yes, but are they *real* mittens?' all I can do is say 'yeah, so, can you clarify what you mean by real?' Because I mean they are real as in not imaginary. They exist. You can touch them. But they are not sized to be worn [...]
Not tidy
Ok so something was bugging me. There were a handful of spots on this hat where the stitches just aren't quite as tidy as I want them to be. Not horrible...but just not tidy. And look, they'd probably block out. And they're certainly the sort of thing that literally [...]
And yet
I am being too picky...way, Way, WAY too picky. I know it. You know it. We all know it. And yet... Should you wish to watch the carnage in real time, you may do so here.
Convinced
I remain convinced that these make excellent bookmarks. I mean, the cord between them was clearly meant for just such service. The fact that this means I can sit there and slip them on and off my fingertips while I read is just an added bonus. I totally [...]
Scandalous
I told you it was instant gratification! That's two knitting sessions and two skeins of very very very big yarn transformed into a very respectable hat with a delightfully deep brim. You really can't ask for more than that. Now, I am slightly cheating by using one of my earlier [...]
Cheerleading
This is for anyone feeling nervous about folding the stars! Remember the little one I folded and put together on video last week? Yeah, I wrote up the folding instructions for that one and put them together for you to try out. If you've been looking at the stars [...]
Tethered
As always, I will not be attempting to convince you that you need these. I will not pretend that they serve any practical purpose. I will not suggest that they solve any of your problems. I will say only that you can sit down with your needles, a tiny ball [...]
Cranked
I cannot even begin to explain how fast and satisfying this is. This, which is about seven inches of knitting (with the brim unfolded) is what I cranked out in one afternoon of knitting. And really, I could probably have finished it in a day, but my elbow would not [...]
