New Knitting Thread (And spinning) (And crochet too I guess)
Gemmwah:
This thread really makes me want to start knitting again, I used to do it when I was younger but I stopped because I lost my needles or something. Anyway, I can't find my other needles, or my mum's needles, which makes me think my dad threw them all out when he moved out of our old place, which is a real shame. I might ask my granny if I can borrow some from her, and some yarn so I can make myself a hat and scarf or something, just to get back into the swing of things.

there is a video that shows you magic loop knitting on that page. you need to have a really long circular needle with a flexible cable. i haven't tried it yet, but i ordered new needles that i can do magic loop with so i will be trying it soon!

Ok, tried this today, and it works really well! The top of my hat is done and now I'm working on a brioche rib for the bottom, which is something completely new for me. Hopefully it works out ok.
Caiphana:
I finished my hat.
I have a crappy webcam. And a messy desk.
But I like my hat ^_^
That's what it looks like without a person in it.
I love magic loop knitting. I would have been angry and have a bit less money without it.
yelley:
the hat looks great cai... what sort of yarn is that?
Caiphana:
Thank you!
It's Landscapes yarn from Lion Brand. The kind I used is Autumn Trails.
The only cruddy thing is that it felts if you wash it too vigorously.
