I am knitting someting popularly called "The Thing". ha.

The Thing is from , and is, for all intents and purposes, knitting homework. Its basically a sampler of different techniques specific to the knitting of a circular sweater. So one can try out all sorts of fancy stitchery without jeopardizing an actual sweater. very appealing, right? well, sorta.

It lacks the appeal of other projects. Unlike other knitted objects, I can't look forward to its new life upon completion, because once its done, what is it? An obstensibly very useful tool, yes, one I might reference frequently, and one that might teach me great and wonderful things. Unfortunately, its also one I rarely feel like knitting.

So a few rows here and there, between sweater projects, before moving on to the next great thing.
