There is still hope
Gjestal Naturgarn yarn for my felted bag, and
figured this out just when elann ran out. doesn’t it figure. then, i convinced
myself that i had just enough and that i would make the handles out of a
different yarn. Then gen points out the elann has new stock. crap – just when i
think i have it all figured out. i hate to order just one ball of yarn…. but
really this yarn looks like it will be great for felting (though i haven’t
tried it yet) and it is a great price, so get yourself
some!
I have been so busy at school
that It took me one whole day to find out that the new knitty is out. I like many of the
patterns, but i think the things that I am most likely to make are
wavy, maryella,
maybe the
very tall socks,
and my very own
womb. Must
stick to the small projects.
I have previously eyed some beaded patterns on
super-small needles, and I think maryella might be good practice. plus i like
cuffs.
I am still in the honeymoon
period with my Denise needles (does the love wear out?) and thought i would post
a picture that i took after i first got them. When i was debating their
purchase i kept wondering how the size and shape of the needles compared to addi
turbos. so here you go, a side-by-side comparison of US#10 (the denise one has
no cable in it).
(bottom) is shorter than the addi, but that the tip is much pointier. Just in
case you were wondering like me.
