They and the Goob deserve to live closer together for mutual spoilings.<br /><br />Gorgeous yarns. Nice orange polish. I'm into all red, all the time for my nails.

(or does auntie's mojo work only in ohio?) at any rate, she surely deserves a scarf or shawl.<br /><br />i'm lusting after a lustkofen, but don't think arthur(itis) would be happy if i attempted one. i can do big projects on big needles, and small projects on small ones, but a big project on small needles? i'm dubious.<br /><br />as for goober, now that you're back where it gets really cold, you may even want to consider a girly version of a chullo -- earflaps would be very welcome come january. <br /><br />(i'm planning to knit one for dear hippie son, who just shaved his head. black, of course, though he's neither skinhead nor goth. i figure i'll just knit a standard watchcap, though without the usual double cuff, and then pick up stitches, knit on earflaps and then drive myself insane with icord -- the most tedious knitting skill i've ever encountered, though dead useful.)elleninindynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21397483.post-49689711840047057892009-09-24T07:52:22.676-05:002009-09-24T07:52:22.676-05:00I do a variation of Andean plying that I found onl...I do a variation of Andean plying that I found online called "handy plying". The wrapping is way easier to remember, but it would still probably send your hand into a tizzy. One of the things I like about it is, if I get called away for some emergency, I can pull my hand out of the loop and hang it on the front maiden of my wheel, then come back later, reinsert my hand and pick up where I left off. Of course, I don't have cats to contend with (the boy knows not to touch my wheel when there is yarn on it, for fear of losing the offending hand or other body part).Mandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05629466576507448272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21397483.post-56659057965616740002009-09-24T04:09:40.149-05:002009-09-24T04:09:40.149-05:00Wow, congrats to the husbeast for finding a job, a...Wow, congrats to the husbeast for finding a job, and yay for connections:)<br /><br />Have you tried andean plying? It might not be any good for your hand, but there's a tool I'm sure the husbeast could duplicate and it does make 2ply from different ends of the same ball easy.Louizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05691100508790921779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21397483.post-32409379298175657992009-09-24T00:19:38.888-05:002009-09-24T00:19:38.888-05:00Wow--that's a lot of productive stressing righ...Wow--that's a lot of productive stressing right there!
