I knit a buttonhole! Yaaaayyy! First time ever. I figured it out on the train. I now know the cable cast on and how to make a cute li'l buttonhole for my knit stuff. Huzzah!

YAY! I know nothing about knitting, but I am sure it's a big deal.

Well, it's not SO big a deal, but it's a new thing for me. :)

YAY!

That's awesome!

I finished the scarf I did as a distraction, and now am back to working on the tank top. Hopefully, I'll finish it before the summer so I can wear it!

Even if it takes you a while, you can always wear it under a cardigan during the fall.

A what?

I picked the easy beginner way--bind off a few stitches in one row, switch needles, cable cast on the same number of stitches, switch back, and keep going. It might be just a wee bit wide, but I can tighten it up easily enough.

[perspicuity.livejournal.com]

i almost follow that :)

i think i'd bind off say N stitches, but keep knitting along, turn as normal, and then do the cable-caston bit for N stitchesto cross the gap, and continue knitting like nothing happened.

so, you're saying knit... cast off N stitches, immediately pickup N stitces "backards" on that row, then continue knitting normally to the end of the row in the forwards direction...?

You completed the first Evil Challenge already? Damn, I may have to scrap this plan. Gotta be some other way to take control of your robopowers...
