Magic Loop, Kitchener, and silence

Thought for today:

God grant me the senility to forget the people I never liked anyway, the good fortune to run into the ones I do, and the eyesight to tell the difference.

Everyone (and by everyone I mean those who I talk knitting with) knows about my numerous attempts at mastering the Magic Loop.  I STILL don’t have it down but…. am working on it! again.  I’ve even put a link to Knit Witch’s You Tube video here, there are several other good ones on You Tube but that one seems to make the most sense to me.  Here you go if you don’t feel like clicking the link.

Kitchener Stitch

The one thing about knitting socks that makes me absolutely insane is finishing them.  Not the knitting part – love that!  It’s grafting the toes (why do you THINK I learned to knit toe up!)  I’m going to be finishing TJ’s today so thought I’d put the link for a great kitchener stitch vid here too.

It’s very quiet around here lately….settling into a pattern of silence it seems.
