Knitting with Sputnik...
That's what it feels like whenever I try to knit with double pointed needles. After wrestling with this at my favorite yarn shop last night, I have gotten this far:
This is the beginning of my first mitten. I am determined to learn to make mittens (because God knows we need them in Las Vegas at this time of year) and to knit them on dpns (because there's just not enough stress in my life). And also because mittens are on my 101 Things to Do in 1,001 Days list. Watch for updates...

stick with it - you're off to a great start. I love making socks on dpn. I get the urge to knit about once a year and make a sock and get bored. the next year I make it's mate and then give the pair away. how silly is that?
Do you get circle needles in the US ? They are double ended with a wire between for knitting in the round as it were. They were designed for knitting fair isle sweaters :D XXX
