Hey #knitsky! Fave needle set up for small circumference (think sleeve or mitt) colorwork? <16” circs make me want to set things on fire, but I hate how often I have to move needles and re-tension yarns with DPNs or magic loop. Two circs make too much noise. Is there a unicorn method I’m forgetting?

Is anyone actually good at shaving their legs? Please say no so I can feel better about my own ineptitude.

My love of jumpsuits and my of chronically delaying going to the bathroom are not a good pair.

10 hours later: the math is done and the pattern is written for the smaller gauge. Go tiny or go home, right?
Working on a Goldilocks project. Bottom swatch is the right gauge, but yarn is too round for lace. Other worsted in stash that’ll work? No.
Top is the fabric I want, but small gauge might be scary. Similar thicker yarn in stash? Yes! Still available? No.
Might be a 6 sts/inch cardi on its way…😂

Can attest that these fleeces are beyond words!
Putting this convo on my main feed:
My flock is primarily focused on growing handspinning fleece. I basically sell two things: HEAVILY skirted prime fleece and roving, all to handpsinners.
Video of last year’s prime fleece that shipped to people on my waitlist from the old place:

Anyone have favorite dupes for Adobe creative suite? One time fee is fine, but I’m extremely tired of paying a mortgage payment yearly to use this software. Wish I could still boot the CS3 I own on CD!
