as you can see, knitting is on the mind. huh. I need a knitting icon.
GUYS I MUST KNIT THESE MITTENS. (Ravelry link here.) I mean, they are called White Witch Mittens.
Except, uh, I hate knitting with DPNs. Like, I was going to do armwarmers with DPNs, and I switched to flat with seaming instead. So -- there's that. But I wonder if I could do them on these needles instead? Along with socks. *thoughtful* I mean, I don't own them, but I could buy them, and I feel like I'd prefer them to using DPNs. (I haven't tried Magic Loop, largely because the only large circumference circs I have are 8s, which -- one does not usually make socks on 8s. I tend to buy 16" circs because I prefer the smaller size of the actual needle part for knitting flat on -- I hate straights. I hate straights a lot. I suppose I could try Magic Loop on my 36" 8s.)
