I is learned to knit! But not purl. I don't understand the typing system.
I is knitting scarf. It is quite satisfying.

"Crocheted brainmeats" WBAENFARB.

(Was discussing similarity of a crochet hook to the device used in the mummification process to remove the brain.)

I never knew that there was such a rich overlap of the worlds of knitting and neuroscience.

There are patterns out there for Mobius scarves, did you know?

Surely that could be achieved by knitting a regular scarf and sewing the ends together?

At the cost of a seam, yes. But knitting is magical and need not have seams.

I have a fucking excellent frame-knit scarf, I must remember to bring it with me the next time I'm in Edinburgh.

Hugh? He's doing a maths PhD at Edinburgh Uni; other people I know who knit are James and Clare - they're all in aasoc.
