I officially hate fingering weight yarn and tiny DPNs.
I have frogged the cast-on and/or first row five times already. I despise this project, and I’m only a day into it. I suspect I have bitten off more than I can chew, despite telling myself that the only way to learn is to try new stuff. My beautiful yarn is splitty and loosely spun, my DPNs are too blunt, and I want to be using two circulars instead of four DPNs. I want to run madly back to my Aran-weight yarns and throw myself into their arms, promising to never, ever leave them again.
That is all.
I sort of feel the opposite. I like using lighter weight yarn, anything above DK and I feel like I am using twine! lol! We all have our own styles.
As for splity yarn, try Panda Cotton. It is completely untwisting on me. But, gosh, the knitted fabric feels so nice!
I am on what feels like day 1 million of scarf #3. I hates it. I thought doing a striped one would be fun…but the yarn that came in the kit I bought makes me want to never knit again.
Never buy a pre-assembled kit. They are full of lumpy wool and complicated accents for no good reason. …Even if the scarf is turning out cool….
