So this is my first serious attempt at knitting, taught by the very patient madradish Not half bad, except for the bit where I did this thing where I got frustrated at how tight the stitching was, pulled it apart and couldn't remember how to cast back on. *headdesk* And rather than doing something useful about it, like asking black_samvara before she went out for the night, I'm now trying to learn from online videos. Sometimes I don't make sense, even to myself.

In other, not surprising news, it's hot and I'm bored. Tell me something random, even if it's just that you're hot and bored too?

I am hot and tired and bored. And also learnt how to cast on from internet videos and knitting magazines.

I'm currently learning from knittinghelp.com. I've got the single cast on down pat, but they're right: it's bastard to try and stitch from. I seem to mangle the long-tail cast on every second stitch or so. *perseveres*
