Katie took this picture of me trying my hand at using my 16" long knitting sticks from the shetland islands. I've had them for about a year and decided to try them out. It is actually faster using these, but I don't have a knitting belt to keep my right hand needle in place, so I just shove it into the cushion of blanket (as you and see), and get a move on... I started the ribbing for this new sweater last night until my melatonin kicked in, and I had only knit about 6 rounds. So, this has been my progress so far today.... Of course, I also had spinning to do, so that put the knitting on the back burner for a bit... :)
