The yarn fairy came (Skinny Singles by Hedgehog Fibres in Ghost, I got mine from Eat Sleep Knit).

And then this happened…this is a fairly normal thing.

And thin this happened…and that is not at all normal.

Yes, yes I am trying again to make something on circs (these, as always, amazon links are affiliate links).  We’ll see how that works out.  Generally it leads to muttering which quickly progresses to swearing and throwing things.  But I don’t have any long DPNs in that size (please, for the love of wool, if you make 12-14 inch DPNs in sizes 2, 3, or 4, let me know…I’ll love you forever).  So I’m giving it a try.  But I fully expect to revert to 6 short DPNs if things go pear-shaped.
