Episode 1: The String Meets The Stix

My passion right now is knitting. Last month it was crochet then sewing and a dash of needle point.  I rotate through my passions with fervor. At any given time they are all number 1. Right now knitting is holding the lead.

On the hook:  A beautiful, large crocheted bag done with 2 strands of ecru cotton yarn. It is almost completed but I need to work on it in short spirts because of the strain on my hands and wrists.

On the stix:  1 sock done with the magic circle. I find this to be much easier and way less frustrating that DPN'S.
Summer Sweater done in Knit Picks Comfy Sport yarn  Honey Dew.  This is a pleasure to knit. I am using Rainbow Needles and the yarn just slides easily on them. This is knit using circular needles and a switch to DPN'S for the sleeves. I am knitting the body now and finishing the sleeves will be last.   

Waiting for empty needles:  shawl that I haven't decided on the pattern

Needle point:  same
