IT'S MY FIRST NON-SCARF THAT ISN'T A POTHOLDER!

So I knitted something cool, showed it to narrativeliving  and had the following conversation:

Her: And gloves do well on etsy, I've seen

Me: Well, they do well year-round, I should think.
Scarves are mostly a winter thing.
unless they're fandom-related.
like Harry Potter or whatever.

Her: True, unless they're fa- YOURE IN ( Read more... )

creative, achievement: unlocked, knitting, i am a crazy person

What a very cute pattern! I like the color, too. Well worth the pain - which I get, because with very tiny /or long needles, I get it, too. I've been getting bamboo needles, and for some reason that's helped (IDK, maybe I just grip them looser?) bit skinny needles are skinny needles. Regardless, they were worth the effort- they're lovely!
ps: was this your attempt with dbl ptd needles that you mentioned (I'm still too scared to try them)?

Noooo.
Actually, the cool thing? You knit these flat and seam them up the side and leave a hole for the thumb. I had to do some loose fitting and pinning to know where to stop, but with the mattress seam you can't see the seam itself, practically. If you want, I can take a pic of where the seam is so you can see.
