@kurobita wearing a pair right now! They’re super warm because you effectively have two layers of yarn.

oh, pro tip: get wool that’s a bit rustic, like Shetland or Norwegian or whatever is sticky/grippy around where you live. SO MUCH easier than, like, superwash merino if you’re starting with colourwork.

@Emotional_Series7814 the book says “wrap the yarn”, that’s English. Continental would be picking the yarn with your right needle.

@kurobita Definitely steel. Sometimes I use bamboo for super slippery yarn but I almost always change them for the steel ones at some point.

@proudblond thank you! it’s a strange state of being. Super enjoying some small things though - like this slipper, or a really good cup of tea.

@Emotional_Series7814 @Sidhean it might not be suitable if you knit for relaxation, but you can do anything one stitch at a time!
