Dear Knitting Designers:

If I'm supposed to base my project size on my high-hip measurement, please say that in the pattern. Otherwise, I will take the term "hip measurement" to mean the fullest part of the hips, because that's what it means, and I will knit the wrong size.

And, who gets 5 stitches per inch on Cascade Pima Tencel? I'm getting 6.25" stitches per inch. Who measures this stuff, anyway?

Love,

Me

12:46 am - Put on your sorting hat.
Whenever I finish the other three knitting projects I have going, I'm going to make myself a Harry Potter scarf. (Yes, I am that much of a dork.) But I don't know which house to pick. So ya'll are going to have to pick for me.

02:35 am - Well, of course I joined!
I was thinking I might hop on the ol' bandwagon and knit myself a Harry Potter scarf. It's an easy enough project, but I figured I'd go looking for a pattern, anyway, to get an idea of how much yarn I'd need. And then I found it. An LJ Harry Potter knitting community.

There are no words.

Look! I can knit! Look! I can knit!
Um... badly. But still. I can totally knit. Yay me! I spent an hour or two last night knitting a few rows, ripping it out, knitting a few rows, ripping it out, and so on, for practice. Tomorrow? I learn to purl. Go me! I'm having some trouble going from one row to another, though. I make a total mess of the edges, and keep adding phantom stitches. Um... yay?
