I find 8-ply/DK/Light worsted is a good thickness, as appropriate needles are about the size of a pencil or pen and thus most people are adept. Be sure to share your Ravelry username when you sign up so we can all friend you! (I think there’s still even a MeFi group over there, mabe not active.)

YES. (Rodd doesn’t care for raisins, so I am forever denied these.) (Well, not really denied, but I’d feel guilty making cookies only for me to eat. 😂)

Nicely done! Big needles knit up fast, but I find them a bit awkward and tiring on my wrists. Are you motivated to try another project?

I don’t know about dyeing, but a makeup artist for a work thing once put Benefit’s “Gimme Brow” on me, and I liked it enough to go buy some. I only use it on special occasions. It’s kinda like a mascara? But I find it looks subtler than a pencil, and easy enough for a klutz like me to apply.

I thought there was a strike on at Starbucks?

He will be so proud. 😂
