Sunday, September 17, 2006
I finished my first knitting project in months and months yesterday. It's a birthday gift for someone who, if he doesn't read this blog himself, definitely has spies who do, so I can say no more, but it came out pretty okay considering I broke every rule in the book in making it and it's a really goofy thing to make anyway. But it was fun. Then I got all excited about intarsia and started making wristbands.

Also, I've mastered the kitchener stitch, finally. That means nothing to anyone reading this, but it means I can now graft in a way that isn't completely ugly, and thus make a garment that doesn't bulge at the seams. This is a big deal, since I suck at finishing, and have been trying to learn this stitch for years.

Yay, boring me. Yay.
