HI GUYS! I am knitting along on a big garter-stitch shawl, and my Mr has gotten a wild hair to knit himself some mittens so he's starting to figure out magic-loop knitting.
(He has actually been knitting longer than me: When knitting became a 'craze' in the early 2000s, with the stitch-n-bitch books, we tried to learn. HE was the one to be able to figure out basics from the book instructions, and he knit a couple scarves, and got back into it a few years ago when my daughter was like, "I wanna learn to knit" and I was like, "Talk to your father." I remember hearing a loud, "This is so much easier with YouTube!" and then he knit like five hats. He hasn't branched out much from that, though, so the mittens thing is kind of exciting.)
