Pasha update

Well, two days ago I started knitting a penguin (Pasha from knitty.com) and I finished knitting it tonight and sewed it all up while I watched So You Think You Can Dance? and it actually went faster then I thought.





Emily (emilystarr at ravelry) showed me today a good way to navigate the wrap and turns that the patterns call for. Picking up the stitches when you're knitting is easy, but when you do it on the purl side, it always looked aweful before. But Emily suggested using a crochet hook instead of the knitting needle and it worked famously! So thank to emilystarr for the great suggestions.

I am thinking of starting my toe-up, two at a time, on two circs socks soon, they will be fab.
