knitting!
bainidhe_dub:
i like to knit. and i just got 450g of sari silk yarn off ebay. it's like a rainbow + scary "breakfast cereal" + flowers + crack spun into yarn. (see washed-out photo.) but now i have to figure out what to do with it.. if anyone has ideas, i'd love to hear them. and, what have people knitted?
heather:
I have not been able to knit since I got to Australia. My stash is back in the states. And I've had essentially no money until now. I am itching to get going again.
THIS WILL CHANGE SOON. I CAN GUARANTEEEEE!!!
Edit: As far as that yarn goes, it would make an EXCELLENT bag. Perhaps get some bamboo handles for it?
darkhorizons:
Only on the QC forums would the word 'knitting' be followed with an exclamation mark.
CourtCat:
I beg to differ - on the other forums I frequent, not only is knitting followed by an exclamation point, but it's in the section set aside for art (vs. music, politics, spiritualism, etc.) - it amuses me in both places, though. And yes, I agree with whoever it was that said it should be a bag - although funky 70s plastic handles might be better than bamboo.
hoax:
Mostly I can knit only really easy things. Like scarves. They're just long straight strips. I've also made a couple of boring beanie-type hats, and one EFFING AWESOME (imo) hat with earflaps and braids+tassles.
