Getting it

It just takes a little video to get me going. I bought another set of circular needles today to try again on my sock. As you know or maybe not, I've gone to learning how to knit socks on 2 circular needles. it's not bad at all. Really fun. I was actually looking forward to coming home so I could knit. I bought a 26" length in the Bamboo and I still do not like the bamboo. I don't like the connection or the point. So.. off I go to AC.Moore on Tuesday, return them and then go to that funky Snow Goose and buy my Addi Turbo 24". I know they had both, it was almost that they were not going to have the 16" but they did. So, I'll go there only because it's closer and I will have to go to work.

Now I understand which needle to pull through. It's, wait a minute, how did I figure this out, the one with the yarn coming from it, push the needle to the front, so it comes in close to where the yarn is. That's how you know which needle to work on. someone on Ravelry said something about pulling and then the lady Cat Bordhi said to pull, that's how I knew I was not doing that yesterday and why only one side was growing. Well,now, I have to go to bed but I'd like to get 4" done. Not going to happen. The connection, nylon on the bamboo is horrible. I will purchase another set of who knows before I buy any bamboo needles. I'm making socks and socks will work on what I have.
