Baby, it's cold outside...so I knit...

Dec 21, 2010 13:13

So, we got a cold snap really early in the season.  Which has re-woken my knitting bug and I've been pretty MIA from the knitting world.

-Is the newest Stitch n Bitch worth it?  I have the other two books

-Has anyone used Bamboo Ewe from stitch nation by Red Heart?  I got some today because it was the only gray in the size I wanted that wasn't acrylic.  Although I'll be using it with a wool/polyamide mix if I can get the needles I need for it.

-I love making hats.  And I love knitting on circular needles.  But I hardly ever want to take a trip to the next town over to get size 16 needles in the size I want from my LYS.  And the time I do, they didn't even have the size I need. :( It's so depressing.

-After finishing my wool armwarmers, I think I may give a whack at knitting some real gloves.  From here:  http://woolyheaded-patterns.blogspot.com/  What does make one right/left mean?  I really don't understand how it's making the thumb gusset

-Is making socks worth it?  I see so many people love knitting socks.
