I've heard they are really pointy little devils even if they get the job done. Love the sock length and the source you found to do it--note for later! Yeah, I'm glad I didn't supply my numbers to Yarn Harlot's blog since they seem to have blown me out of the water! LOL! The knit goes on.... Owey is right!

Almost like something was imbedded in it. For the longest time I would poke and prod it, until I used really pointy needles, stabbed the dot said "ouch" and then "oh, I see". My cat got acupuncture, was pretty mellow, and then she freaked and ran under the couch at the vet's. Hope Gus is feeling better!

That is some sock -- I'm impressed! Ouch! I've got a habit of pushing the needle with my left pointer finger, so it gets sore sometimes (when using the Knitpicks needles, I'm trying to learn not to do that, and I've been partially successful), but I've not yet bled!

Fast! I hear you on the funny knitting though - I wind the yarn so tightly around my index finger it looks like that finger will fall off at some point :) Your knitting video was fascinating to watch.

You can pick up these little clear padded stickers called Thimble It at most fabric or craft stores and they work like a charm. Stick one on and no more bleeding fingers. I don't put them on until my finger starts to get sore so I can build a little callous first. No pain no gain :) I don’t knit the same way you do but I do rub my finger.
