Booga Bag

Yes, I’m considering making a Booga Bag. I’ve checked all the online stores I know, plus my LYS and none of them have Kureyon in any of the colors I want. So I may have to wait a few weeks. The owner of the LYS said she should be getting a new shipment in about 2 weeks. Her price is the same as the shops online, so I may have to just get some from what’s in stock at Jimmy Bean’s Wool or Royal Yarns. But I’m tired of carrying around my knitting projects in plastic bags. I usually just carry one small project, and none of the bags I currently have are small enough…they are all too big. So I thought I’d try a Booga Bag.

I have attempted another join on my tank top, using Alison’s advice and The Knit Stitch. We’ll see what happens. I can’t tell yet until I go all the way around one or two times. So far it looks like it might work though. Yeah! I can continue my tank and hopefully get some major progress done on it this weekend.

Geek Code

The new edition of “Knitty.com”:http://www.knitty.com has an article explaining the Knitter’s Geek Code. So of course, I had to go through it and figure out what my code would be. Since I’m a beginner, it is slightly depressing and was hard to figure some of it out, but here’s what I came up with:

——- BEGIN KNITTER’S GEEK CODE BLOCK ——

Version 1.1

KCmR- Exp- SPM->++ Bam+(-)@ Alum+(-) Pl>- Wool+@ Cot+ Stash-> Scale–>++ Fin->+ Ent? FI? Int?>+ Tex?>+ Lace? Felt?>+ Flat>++(-) Circ+>++ !DPN> ML? Swatch>++ KIP->++ Blog+++ SNB– EZ? FO- WIP– GaugeDK(W)(S) ALTCr+X+SW–>Wv

——- END KNITTER’S GEEK CODE BLOCK ——

I had to wrap the lines so that it would all show up, but you get the idea. I will do it again in a year or two if I remember and see how much it’s changed since the beginning. That will be interesting to see. Have you figured out your Knitter’s Geek Code yet?
