violet.

today's a month of prompt is violet, so i thought i'd share my latest beanie project...



i cast it on while we were in sydney, to teach myself the magic loop technique on circular needles.

i followed this tutorial and it was not NEARLY as hard as i thought, albeit a little slower than my normal technique.

my main reason for wanting to learn is so that i can get knitting on a different project... socks!
i've been wanting to get knitting on some socks for a while, but the thought of all of those double pointed needles, for the amount of time it'd take me to knit TWO socks... well, there'd be far too many! it would do my absolute head in!

what's on your needles at the moment? have you learnt anything new recently?
