I’m only about 18 rows from the end of Seraphim, but each row now has approximately eleventy-thousand stitches. I’ve hit the wall.
Last night, on a whim, I decided to start knucks. “What a fun, fast project!” I thought. And yeah, the knitting is fun.
I think the weaving in of 20+ ends will be less fun. D’oh!

Oops! You might need to start a third something, like a scarf, for quick gratification and few ends!!

I started a pair of Knucks ages ago but gave up as I found it soooo fiddly there in the beginning with all the little finger part…
Maybe I should give them a try again, as I’m much more confident with my knitting nowadays.

You’re past the most fiddly bit! I’ve made these, and the ends were annoying, but worth it in the end.

yeah i don’t make gloves anymore b/c of the fiddliness, but i’d almost make an exception for knucks. so useful!

They’re cute, though! I love the tweedy gray.

Oooh, I like the tweedy grey! Hopefully the ends won’t be *too* bad. I’m working on Seraphim right now, too, where by “working” I mean “doing anything other than knit on Seraphim because each row takes like, 45 minutes”. I’m eager to see yours!

Oh, ouch. Ends.
Maybe it’s time to cast on another quick, easy project and weave in 2 ends every day.
