gmonkey42Haven't got a Peter Pan icon to go with the title so here's Tom Riddle. Anyway.
I just learned how to knit cylinders - big ones on circular needles and little ones on double-pointed needles!
Now I just have to learn how to make buttonholes and those wrist warmers will be mine!
And then: Snape-style black fingerless gloves.
Man, my hands are going to be so warm.
ETA: er, it would help if I remembered that I'm using smaller needles and thinner yarn than in the pattern. Well, as long as I don't need to have circulation in my thumb, these'll work. Heh. Nah, I haven't gone too far, I'll just knit backwards to the hole and make it bigger. I can't do frogging properly; I have to un-knit each stitch. Ah well.
On the plus side, I've figured out that I can just do the buttonholes for finger holes too, and actually have fingerless gloves, not just wrist warmers. W00t. No, what am I thinking, that won't work. Because how would I connect the two sides (like the front and back)? Oh well. Open wrist warmer thingy it is. That's still pretty cool.
