Jaywalking
While I decide what socks to make from the lovely sea green-blue Tess Handpaint, and try to finally settle on a cardigan pattern (I found a new possibility yesterday. It’s very plain, but that’s kinda what I wear. Hmmm.), I cast on for some Jaywalkers. I’m only a few rows in to the pattern bit, but boy is it addictive. So easy to remember, and so simple, yet looks great. I can feel them calling me right now.
I’m back to dpns for socks. I like the magic loop method for some things - hats and the like, but for socks I find the whole thing goes much more smoothly if I can just keep knitting round and round, and not have to keep on stopping to pull the cables through and turn the knitting.
Great yarn - may I ask what kind it is?

Amen! Hallelujah!
I’ve been hearing people talk about Magic Loop, and seeing it all over the place, and am now doing up a pair of those thumbless things that Knitty came out with a while back, because I thought I’d try out the Magic Loop thing on something which should be fairly easy … and it’s no fun whatsoever. I terribly wish I could get off the ride, and I may, in a couple rows or so, because it’s just sucking all of the life out of knitting, from what I can see of it.
