My single stitches, as in the center of the flower, were disappearing, so I started double-wrapping them. They lie nicely and make up for any undue tightness. #knitsky
I *love* knitting on the back deck. But our cat gets jealous that she canโt get out, and since sheโs expert at prying open the slider, I canโt relax!

Lovely color and pattern!
I tend to drop stitches when Iโm not looking. I also find extra yoโs or weird-ass things from 3 rows down.
For me itโs been โBoring.โ I donโt know why, I feel all knit out. Nothing excites me.
The only Josh that โgets shit doneโ is Shapiro.
More green! Rainbow Flora in Juniper Moon Farms Cumulus. This cotton is an absolute dream to work with. I have since removed the ribbing and added 6โ. Iโm too old for โcropped.โ

6โ sock, 8โ standard (for sleeves?). I didnโt know there were different sizes until I accidentally ordered 8โ dpns, US 1. Iโd poke my eye out if I tried to knit socks on those!
Gorgeous!
Very pretty!
No. I suppose the โhorseshoeโ shaped needles would be similar in that they donโt take up much space or get in the way.
I knit to stay calm, but I think Iโm cancelling out the benefits by watching political YT. ๐คฆโโ๏ธ

Spirals. You canโt knit directly off them, but theyโre easier to manipulate.
The more Gnomes the gnicer!
Lawyers for migrants from around the world who were deported from the United States and moved to a remote jungle camp in Panama in recent weeks say they have been unable to communicate with their clients since they arrived there.
Is Gnicolas from the Gnomes of Grimblewood book? Heโs adorable! I want to knit every single one!
For #FinishItFebruary, I finished 6 of 7 WIPโs, mended 5 of 6 things planned, but now have to mend a snag on one of the WIPโs Iโd finished. ๐ข Content with my progress. Now โshopping my queueโ for the next few projects!

All of ours are going to disappear. Luckily there is a LYS nearby that also stocks fabric, but itโs quilting stuff. I will miss Joannโs when Iโm in need of something more specialized.
Iโve got medium and large of the same kind, but medium is what I use most often.
Sometimes the yarn knows what it wants to be! No sense fighting it.
VeryPinkKnits refers to this as the โWind Chimesโ stage. It gets easier.
I just got this book too! I canโt wait to finish my current projects so I can start these.
Now Iโm *really* intrigued!
Iโve had partial retinal detachment. The surgery itself isnโt bad, but recovery is slow. Iโm glad you werenโt suffering from that. I wish you a speedy return to normal.
I use a spiral needle, and itโs just on the table next to me between rows.
Go for it!
I hate when that happens! A shawl I made for my mother ended up this way, so after she passed, I brought it home and frogged it and made it again. She wouldnโt hear of it when she was alive, which I guess is what Moms do. โค๏ธ
