Knitty and Knitting

There are quite a few things in the new fall Knitty that appeal to me. I think the only thing that I might knit soon, though, might be this scarf. (So many projects, so little time…)

Oh, and after sleeping on it, I’ve decided that Devan is fine as is. Now I’m trying to decide whether to block before assembling. I can go either way on this. Blocking makes things nicer to seam up, but it’s not as though I need to stretch the pieces to the measurements they’re supposed to be, so technically I could garment block. Or I could just sew it up and let Carrie wear it and not block it at all…

And in other knitting news, I just finished up a hat. Yeah, you know how I pretend to be normal and all? It’s all an act. I’m really a total geek at heart, and in a previous life I used to go to, um, Star Trek conventions and so I guess it’s not all that surprising that I had to knit myself a hat for the premiere of Serenity. If you haven’t seen it, Firefly (the sadly short-lived TV show that the movie is based on) is an absolutely fabulous show.
