Learning to knit on DPNs!
Tumblr media
I've had to experiment a bit to find a way to hold the needles so that the extra needles don't get in the way of how I tension my yarn. What seems to work best for me for knitting (I have yet to try this for the purling) is to make sure the two needles I'm working with are behind all the others. I took a bunch of pictures in case I forget:

I put elastics on the ends of all the needles just so that I don't have to worry about dropping a needle while I'm fumbling around, but these Lykke needles are so grippy with this old thrift-store acrylic that I don't actually need them.
The biggest problem I'm having now is losing track of my fifth needle as soon as I put it down. I'm so used to circular needles and having that other needle on a leash!
My other problem is that my tension is super tight. I'm assuming that this will get better as I get used to the technique and my hands relax.

I bought the supply drop mainly for this emote. I'm having totally normal feelings about my girl.

BOOK REVIEW - Lykke by Meik Wiking
We always say mental health is important but how much we truly focus on it, or taken care of it? It’s all in words and sentences we say to sound good. In reality it’s a part of our body we think most inside of it, treat poorly and ignore every time. The way people should live – bounded by happiness and taking care of each other. But we end up having fights and taunting each other most importantly…

Here’s some OCs of mine! Lykke is the girl with a ponytail and Sinian is the smol purple blob! ^^ Sinian is basically Lykke’s second mentor but he’s not very good at it. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
These characters are from a different universe than Medhjelperne btw! ^^

I'm trying to decide if I would regret sharpening my Lykke knitting needles.
Tumblr media
They're so blunt that I find them useful pretty much only for stockinette. Right now most of my projects are cables, for which I prefer very pointy needles, or double knitting, for which I prefer fairly pointy needles. The pointy needles I have are either too small (Knit Picks, Clover), too grippy (Clover bamboo), or too dark (Knit Picks) for the yarn I'm using.
The Lykkes are kind of crap anyway: they've already lost a lot of their finish. They're long enough that I can afford to shorten them quite a bit, and if I decide in the future that I've made them too pointy, I can always dull them again.

Book Review: The Little Book of Lykke: The Danish Search for the World's Happiest People by: Meik Wiking
A city is successful not when it’s rich but when its people are happy. Creating bikeability and walkability shows respect for human dignity. We’re telling people, ‘You are important—not because you’re rich, but because you are human.’ If people are treated as special, as sacred, even, they behave that way. We need to walk just as birds need to fly. Creating public spaces is one way to lead us to…
