Knitting misc

[yuuago]

Went down to the knitting store to pick up some needles today, since I didn't already have the correct sizes for my next project. I'm a little bit glad that this place is in a weird part of town and I usually forget it exists, because otherwise I would likely spend way too much money there, haa. But it's sure nice to have an option aside from Walmart.

The only options they had for the size I needed were interchangable circs; so after a bit of debate, I ended up going with those. I'm sure they're lovely and convenient to use, but I'm such a scatterbrain, it's so easy to imagine myself losing the cords. But I've been getting better about putting my knitting stuff back in its original packaging after I'm finished with it, so I don't expect that many problems....

They had so many lovely skeins of Malabrigo Rasta! It's so pretty and squishy, and I was sorely tempted. But I'm trying my best not to buy anything unless I have a project in mind for it, and I have no earthly clue what I would use that stuff for. And, judging by the patterns I've glanced at that require super bulky yarn, I would need to buy yet another new pair of needles for that. ;p

The Marshmallow Fluff cowl is lovely though. Maybe something like that? (No, no, I shouldn't get ideas...!)

I knoooow, eh? Maybe after I get through more of my stash, I'll have to get the necessary things to make it....

When I first started out, I thought I could get away with just one set of needles. Ohhh boy, was I ever wrong. xD
