Totally geeking out

Sometimes a knitting pattern just stops you right there in your tracks. How someone thought of this, how someone pulled this off! Here, I’ll stop blathering, just go, go look at the ultimate piece of double knitting ever. And if you know of one that incredible please speak up.

I am in awe.

Luke: (say it in that Darth Vader voice) I am your knitter. And after all that work and all that expertise they are giving the pattern away. Frankly, they earned every dime they’re not asking for.

wow! here I was feeling all smug that I recently figured out a specific pattern that involved musical notes and piano keys on a hat, but that is not double sided — yes, that is totally geeked out double knitting!!

Check out some of the double knit designs by sockmatician on Rav. He is just one of the talented dk designers in the Double Knit group. There are even several who have done double knit lace which to me is really incredible.

I have a friend who knit the One Ring Scarf on Ravelry for her husband. http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/one-ring-scarf

I was in awe. But not so much when I saw her husband wearing it. He said that he could never let anything happen to it because it took 160 hours to knit.

I’ve seen The Null Hypothesis scarf knit up in a gradient yarn. http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/the-null-hypothesis-scarf

The pattern was not free. I believe the knitter knit this for the joy of it.

Best of all – no Jar Jar Binks.

I’m not at all sure I can manage that, even with the guidance of the Force.
