Show Off!!! No really that is great that you have yours done for your "Spoilee, Victim", maybe you should knit him another one while the rest of us you haven't even started yet, might be able to catch up with you! LOL! Knit on!

maybe a little hat and mitt set to go with it! I think that's a brilliant idea :-)
Dearest, I have FIVE
Dearest, I have FIVE christmas stockings to design and knit for clients, not to mention scarves/hats for family members, 2 afghans, and a set of hats for a friend's family (matching long stocking caps), not to mention finishing my Mother's sweater and replacing the defective zipper on Dad's sweater. Don't be greedy...

Right! and some of the rest of us mortals have barely managed to get the bloody skeins untangled!!! I knit so hard to catch up after a few days of wasted time, that an elbow has seized and wrists are complaining. Please tell us that if you have managed to get it finished already that at least your little fingers hurt from the strain.

Do you use straights or
Do you use straights or circs? Circs reduce a lot of strain.

sometimes dp.s but right now a circ. rarely regular straight needles. I wondered about pillows under the elbows but then that wouldn't do too much for the wrists. I can't afford to get bunged up so am open to all possible solutions
I can't believe you are done
I can't believe you are done with your scarf already! Totally unfair. Just for that I'm writing Jared Flood and telling him what you said! ; )

That's OK. I'm always
That's OK. I'm always knitting scarves to test yarn combinations and patterns, and I realized that one that I had on my needles would be perfect for my "Victim" so I finished it while watching the telly. I don't expect anyone to send me one early: I have PLENTY of scarves at home to wear in the meanwhile.
