So after popping out and buying some needles and wool and knitting the unicorn, then knitting a couple of Dickensian mice, I had a visit from the grandsons.
So, of course, next on the list comes a dinosaur and a Godzilla (did you guess?)
Sat with eldest GS and looked at patterns (in my naivety), picked a couple out and said, 'yes dear, of course I will knit those for you'.
Then last night looked at the patterns.
In the round 'Double ended needles' was my pronouncement (pretending to know what the hell I was talking about) to OH, then began to google. Looked on here. Googled again. Read more on here.
Circular needles and sets of needles and... and... and... the price
Did this again
One of the patterns said 'stuff as you knit'!
Do these people not have cats???
So i just ordered some double ended needles that did
not cost an arm and a leg and now sit here warily awaiting their arrival.
What have I let myself in for?
I think I will knit a scarf next
