I will say, dental floss is pretty handy to carry around in your knitting kit! I just use floss instead of yarn for parking stitches, and it also makes a great lifeline since you can pull it out so easily when you’re done. Great video!! I’ve been wanting to play around with making some custom needles or attachments for my chiagoo set for some while, I’m glad I randomly came across your channel!
A latch-hook would have been handy. Or you can overlap the ends of the yarn, wind a piece of sticky tape around the join, and pull it through. But neither of those methods would have made such an absorbing video.
Similar problem to a plumb bob, and plausibly a similar solution to go through the center to keep it straight. I'm sure, like me, you wish you had a wire EDM machine, especially for this scale work. Just found your channel and I like what I see! Subscribed. Need to catch up now. Thanks!
ruclips.net/video/RJ4gDOykXFg/видео.htmlsi=P2skCwkZKBKO6V-1 Everything old is new again.... Perhaps you could combine that with the notion of a "Swedish Fid" (some parts of which are visible in the upper left of the screen, in the clear box) to make it easier to feed yarn into it. His toothpick idea would work too. A guy smart enough to make a heptagonal collette block can certainly run with the idea! Especially one with a collection of mills and lathes.
Looks good - and yeah, tiny saws. There are also larger-sized grips for single-sided blades that I use in similar ways. (And I should get myself a proper jeweller's saw, for that matter. I don't know where my projects being as well solved in general by single-grip micro hand saws lies on the causality side of that equation.) How'd mom like the sweater?

This is a cool project and a neat design challenge.
And, yeah, jeweler's saws are the best.

Gotta love a mind looking to improve a tiny portion of the universe.

Haven't had a chance to get it to her yet, thanks to the snow.
