badstarI decided to go ahead and start knitting them on straight needles, with the ribs going lengthwise. I know aboutthismuch about knitting...which involves no shaping or increases/decreases, so I had no idea how to make themso they actually smewhat conformed to my arms as they git skinnier towards my wrists.
I think I'm going to knit them s that they don't quite go all the way around the thickest part of my arm, and then lace them closed with ribbons or satin cord, that way, they're adjustable.
Hmm...what color ribbon? I'm thinking salmon pink and teal (two of the colors in the yarn...there's a picture here http://store.knitting-warehouse.com/309458.html)
I don't know what to get various family members for Christmas. Hmm...maybe I'll make them scarves (Croceted, not knit...I can crochet a scarf SO much faster than I can knit one- I can knock out a nice scarf in a day or two. and I know that samantha would LOVE somehign made out of sparkly pink or purple yarn..and anyhting that Samantha would like, Ashlyn would probably like too. Maybe I'll drop by Michael's on the way home from work. I made a stop there the other day to return the circular needles that I couldn't use, and a LOT of their yarn was on sale. I need to stop in the same shopping center and pay my phone blll anyway.)
