Snake, snaaaaaake!!

Hey, it’s the only thing I remember from linear algebra! That’s the longest living sheep ever.

That looks fabulous! I really like the big stitched and the drape. You are all set for winter. :)

Did you manage to finish? Looks like it is going to be a beautiful sweater.

Portuguese style looks really interesting! I learned to knit after learning to crochet, so I’ve only ever gotten the hang of continental.

This really is a tasty recipe. Their chicken and veg curries are good, too.

Nice work! Roxanne Richardson on YouTube has a neat series of videos on several heel constructions for toe up and cuff down if you are looking for different heels. She also talks about measurements for various foot shapes.

Those look great! I love the colors. Are you doing two at a time?

We have far side at home.

Ah, that is very cute. Congrats!!

That’s really pretty! I thought it was a close up of a tiny sweater until I read the needle size. What yarn are you using?

Thanks! I wasn’t clear, glad you got what I meant. :) That link is very helpful. I have never tried to sew ribbed bind off before. I will have to give it a try. It looks so nice and flat.

Hi fellow machine knitter! This is fantastic!! What bind off did you use for your ribbing? It’s really nice and flat.

Usually they are pretty pricey, especially with the ribber attatchment. That’s an amazing deal for a bed and ribber setup!! You can sometimes find used ones on ravelry or craigslist. I’ve only ever found parts where I live. The lk-150 is a great machine for dk and worsted weight yarn if you want to check it out.

Machine knitting is fun and tricky. I’ve had people tell me it’s not “real knitting”, but there is a lot of skill in getting a nice result like this cardigan. You can knit big pieces flat, do hand manipulation to make cables and lace on the machine, and pick up stitches to knit the ribbing by hand. Or you can use attatchments to make it all on the machine. I think it’s very interesting how everything works.

Maybe you can draw a picture instead? Are the “words” in here with you now?

Nice! I had to rip mine back and make it shorter, too. It was pretty quick the second time. :) Good luck with the rest of the sock.

Brain fog is the worst. :( Hope you feel better soon and get to turn the heels. That’s going to be a nice pair of socks.

What did you think of the heel? I like the fit and look on the pair I’m doing right now. I thought it was neat to knit. I ended up with some gaps on the sides, just grabbed a few stitches to close them after the heel.

The general measurements in the pattern for toe up didn’t work for me (too long). I ended up ripping back and doing it shorter.

A little bit of 3, a lot of 4.
