This is all I've been doing. Now that the end's in sight, I can't seem to put them down. I'm in the middle of a long rib and there'll be a short rib and then the bind off. Between knitting on breaks at work and Knit Night tomorrow, I think I'll have these puppies done by bedtime. Although, I have a lot of yarn left so I might make them even taller. Depends on my mood and if my finger holds out. These Harmony Wood needles are very pointy and my index finger is rather sore. Still, I'm pretty much sold on these needles and I don't think I'll use anything else. Anyway, I love how the broken rib is knitting up. It's fun to see the pattern forming, which is the point, really. That's why I switched from a regular 2x2 rib in the first place: 2x2 was boring.
Isn't it amazing how a simple little pattern change can speed up the knitting by lightyears?
