Well I am up to 36 teeth. Still not sure why the hitchhiker has only 41 teeth. Was a wisdom tooth pulled? (joke) Not sure about the decrease instructions. Sort of seems like you do the 7 rows, decrease on the 8th. But the way the pattern is written (not sure if was translated right or I am not translating the instructions right), it sounds like you knit the 7 and keep on doing the row 8. But that would look wonky, so I posted on dramatic knits rav page just to make sure its the whole 8 rows. But I am in no rush since still have a couple of more teeth to take care of. Might test out a couple of different yarns, since I am doing it in acrylic right now, gonna try the red heart aran flecked yarn next (actually started it and have done 3 teeth already), and some thin yarn (maybe get rid of that martha stewart yarn in the process.
I will be so happy when I get through all the podcasts with the word SSK in it. I am glad that people got to go but I am soooooTIRED of listening to people who are going, who are there, who wished they could, or those who wished they actually got picked. But Leslie, Laura, and Carin have been the talk of the town until the whole Ravalympics/Olympics debaucle. What the heck is up with that??? How can people get confused between people going to London to compete in sports events with people bloody knitting? Grow up olympics! Wonder when the Tour de France people will start having a hissy fit about the Tour de Fleece that's going on. I would rather think that the olympics would be flattered that a bunch of knitters and crocheters are paying a tribute to the ruddy event. (sorry).
My step mother actually got her cartridge stitch cowl and she loves it. Actually loves the color and figured out that you can pull it up over the head to keep warm. She got it and the power went on in the same day....Good thing. Shame that it is butt hot in the DC area and she can't wear it. I am so thankfull that we don't get the same heat and humidity out here. don't miss that a bit!
Well its late and have to start thinking about crawling into bed with my fuzzball.
