Notes

I am learning entrlac knitting with knitting-backwards instead of turn-and-purl and am finding it addictive. I have a few part-skeins of Wendy Happy and so I am going to try knitting a Buff™ -like neck warmer / headband / headscarf using these techniques and yarns.

Frogged and restarted once 20110201.

20110204: Going well with the two colours (see second photo). Knitted the first few block-rows with my KnitPro interchangable Harmony 3 mm needle tips and that worked well (I have a tendency to nearly snap my 2mm Harmony circs. These are the only two Harmony/wooden needles/tips I have and so I will carry on with my nickle plated set in the future. Better slippiness flow makes for faster knitting. Yes the wooden ones mean fewer lost/dropped stitches but, if I am careful, that is rarely an issue.
