EZ to be hard

You know I got Elizabeth Zimmermann's Knitting Workshop for Christmas right?

Well I had some yarn leftover from my sweater lying around, so I cast on for EZ's "Ribwarmer".

I thought it was going to be simple.

Uh, no.

First off, the directions in the book are... rather scanty.

So when I was instructed to do short row shaping, I uh, make a heel, like in sock knitting.

So I finish knitting this heel, then I say, "Okay that just looks wrong."

So I frogged back and turn the corner properly.

I've used up about two balls of yarn on the first half, so when I was ready to cast on the second half I went looking for the other yarn.

All I could find was, one ball.

Great.

It's so stash busting that I have to go out and buy more yarn!

There is a silver lining though.

This is possibly the best TV/movie knitting ever.

Back and forth, back and forth.

I love it.
