KNITTING DUDES
is anybody else doing / planning to do Annis from Knitty? I mean, I think the nupps will end me but I have a couple of balls of Malabrigo Lace kicking around and it's supposed to be a fairly fast knit. Also I have an Addi Lace needle and when you're purling like, seven together.
Canada Erin says she's thinking about doing it with beads instead of nupps?
ANYWAY let me know we can all weep hysterical tears over the nupps together.
Finished Resident's hat, which was a speed record for me at least, since I started it Thursday night at knitting group and did up the seam (I tend to do the brims of hats flat and then mattress stitch the side, since you have to do something with the yarn tail anyway and it's a hell of a lot easier to be careful not to twist when you've got a good wide bit of work done to weigh it down) on the bus home. Stopped at Knit/Purl to get an opinion about bobbles (voted against) and now ... I'm reading terrible fic and trying to remember where I put the laceweight. TOMORROW: more rom com! Ugh.
