For an almost perfect circular start, cast on the begining number of stitches, join in a round, and work with double pointed needles, join in a round, and work with double pointed needles until you have enough stitches to go onto a circular. When the shawl is finished, go back to the begining piece of yarn in the centre and before you weave in the end thread it through the first round of stitches, pull tight

It's only knitting and it's one of the few times in your life when there are no bad consequences to a mistake.

If you were ever dumped after knitting a guy a sweater, consider the possibility that the problem was with the sweater, not you. The recipient probably took one look at the thing, imagined a lifetime of having to pretend to like (and wear) this sweater and others of its like, and saw no choice but to flee into the night.

He took in the whole thing, declined to try it on, and three days later dumped me without so much as a nod in my general direction. I still feel bad about it.That was a lot of wool to kiss good-bye

i usually have the urge to phone commercial sweater producters and ask them if monkeys are their sizing models
