What can I tell you about it? Well, the Swiv 360 cable is quite a bit thinner than the original red cables, and it is also a lot more flexible – very nice! These cables are attached to the ends that screw onto the needle tips in such a way that they can rotate freely – a tremendous improvement.
The only downside of these new cords is that there is a slight hitch where the cable is attached to the ends, which makes sliding the stitches from left to right over them towards the tip (when moving from one needle to the next with the magic loop method) a little more difficult. But, all in all, I’m very happy with it!
6. Mini-mittens
I’m not quite but almost on schedule with the Norwegian mini-mittens I’m knitting for an Advent calendar to gift next year. Number 13 has just slid off my needles.
“My idea was to spend some quiet, contemplative time burning a candle and listening to music while knitting one of these every day. In real life it’s more like 15 minutes here, 20 minutes there, sometimes with, sometimes without music, often forgetting to light a candle or to be quiet and contemplative.”
This made me laugh, because it is the honest truth!!
Things often work out differently in real life from what we imagine them to be, don’t they? As long as we can laugh about that, it’s fine!
Och Marijke, zie ik de door mij gebreide sokje. Fijn dat je er blij van werd! Lieve groet, Froukje
Heel blij. En ook zo leuk om ze allemaal bij elkaar te zien op je blog.
