ok, so i frogged the fugly garter chunky scarf, and so far it's just rolled up in a ball. I don't know what i'm going to do with it...perhaps I'll mix in some thin colorful yarn and make more slippers.
anyway, i also frogged the really thin dpn whatever i was making, and I combined two strand of yarn together and is using US 8 DPN to make a sort of sock...or at least the heel part. I'm experimenting i suppose. it gets easier after you start...the DPN & the casting on and all. it was all the COs and the frogging that was getting me to.
i think this new yarn that i got might be ok, if i used one strand. it might still make it to be normal human size.
i so don't gauge. and that's what i get for not gauging.
i also have looked ahead on my knitting calendar...and sadly to say, it has spoiled the fun for me of "discovering" what pattern it is each day. Maybe when I get my crochet a day calendar i won't do that, so that i don't spoil my own fun.
i like making the socks. it's not as hard as i thought it would be...isn't that how it is, techniques aren't as hard as you think they would be once it clicks in your head.
