With the phone stuck in my bathrobe I preserve for myself later the straight edge crochet move. It's not perfect and I am sure I will learn something better someday but it's what I have been using.

The Truth About Cables
I have knitted miles of cables and have tried several shortcuts and variations. But the cold hard truth of it is, they turn out the best with a cable needle and transferring the stitches back on your working needles. They just do. Dammit. But they are beautiful.

My Love of Knitting
I love Knitting so much. And crochet is finding a place in my heart as well. I fear my hands won't last as long as my affection. But I will tie knots as long as I am physically able. I love creating useful and beautiful things for people I care about.
Long live yarn! And my hands.

Miranda's Ponytail Hat and...
Something I have tried before and failed.
It was one of those things I saw on Pinterest, a hat made of horizontal rows of cables. I joined with a three needle bind off and picked up stitches for the brim, simple k,p,rib. The upper cable strip is what threw me last time, joining looked awkward.
So! We shall see.

Locker Hats
So now I have two hats for people who don't work with me anymore in my locker. And Matt's.
Undeliverable! Crap!!!!
Working on Miranda's hat.
Some mysterious and annoying pain in my side is making it had for me to concentrate at all. Kidney stone?
