So, as always happens, life got crazy and I stopped posting. Instead of making a long post about what I've been up to I decided just to start talking about what I've finishd since last time I posted and do a few shorter posts about that.
However, I started this blog so that I didn't make my husband crazy with my knitting talk, and I've been holding it in since yesterday about how excited I am about what came across my twitter feed yesterday. It was this video on how to knit with DPNs. I have tried unsucessfully many times to learn to knit with DPNs and never been able to get it. Something about the video though, was incredibly helpful and made it click. I grabbed the only set of DPNs in the house and some scrap yarn and tried it out and made it work. Couldn't have been more excited about it! It was just a small tube of 12 stitches, but I feel like I knit a masterpiece. I still prefer a long circular needle for a hat or socks, but learning this skill was something that really needed to happen to make me a more well-rounded knitter.
