Knitting

I've been knitting a lot lately. Like the "calluses on the tips of the fingers, hands cracked and dry but can't use lotion because it gets in the way of knitting" type of a lot.

Wrap it around these



And get this



Or how 'bout this mess of yarn


Add these again

Plus this cable needle


And get this


Seriously, how cool is that?
