Some days, I wish I could code and knit at the same time *G*

Heeee, yes! I find I can knit and revise, but not knit and write at the same time. :) (And even then, only if it's very very plain knitting!)

[afuna]

Heeee, yeah, I do the same thing when reading -- I can afford a bit less concentration for fiction, need a bit more concentration for non-fiction, but in general when reading I can only knit things where I already know the pattern. I can't do any reading while I'm in the familiarizing stage.

You could always knit your code. :D

[afuna]

*giggle* I hear that is possible. I have thought about it, but I keep holding off because I'm not sure it would be worth the trouble.

Heh, it'd require memorizing the ASCII table and binary conversion, and probably making a very ugly knitted piece and some freaky computer vision but:

Knit = 1
Purl = 0

every time you do 8, it types the character.

I uh, wonder what that would actually LOOK like -- if you knit/purled some code in that manner.

Knitting and Perling. I can't recall if this one was knittable. Last year's knitting puzzle was, but it wasn't code-related.

[afuna]

Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. I bet it would look completely random. Oh though, hmmmm. On second thought maybe not as random as all that since letters would all start with 01, and then most of the punctuation marks would mostly start with 00, and ohhh and you'd have a lot more punctuation marks in perl than say English so.

Hmmmmmmmm.

I may decide to do something about this one day.

That would be awesome. Would the different languages look different? Would python have cables, for instance?

[afuna]

Cables O_O Somehow that thought hadn't even entered my mind.

Maybe tabs should be cables *laughs*

Some days, I wish I could just knit, plain and simple. My poor wee legwarmer is badly neglected.

It's hectic come holiday season isn't it? *G* (your poor legwarmer!)

[jadelennox]

Technically I can! Except I can't really knit anymore for the obvious reason. I knit this scarf for my sister over the course of about a year, one row or less at a time.

Mostly it comes in handy that I can code and pet the cat at the same time.

[afuna]

Oooh that scarf is pretty awesome.

That makes me think of you as an evil supervillain. Just so you know :-)
