Ack! I just discovered that even though I had double/triple-checked, I still managed to accidentally twist this top while joining it, so that it basically forms a moebius loop. That's two solid days of knitting I'll need to unravel :-(

Umm, grandpa's scarf isn't going very well. It looks very "hole-y". I put it down just to see if I was overthinking it, but I just picked it up again, and it still doesn't look right.

I'm thinking of using smaller needles -- that sample is knit using 4.5mm; I think 4.0 would be good enough, but I don't have any in that size yet. May try my 3.75mm if I can't drop by the yarn store any time soon.

Once I get this issue sorted out, hopefully things will go faster :-)


ETA: Switched to the 3.75 needles, and I am getting this deliciously dense cloth, and I love it.
