I stopped for a moment last night just before dividing for the Baby Jacket sleeves, to admire the way that the knitting curves on the circular needles. It’s like a little magic trick — I’m knitting straight rows, but it turns into a circle, voilà!
I’d started it on straight needles, then decided that the gauge was just a little tight after all, and moved to these lovely rosewood circulars. Are they not beautiful? so light, so smooth, so rich in their browns and golds, so warm like the grain of a fine violin.
Excuse me, I feel a little "Citizen Kane" moment coming on …
"Rosewood!"
