Introductions

[chemicallace]

People don't seem to be taking my encouragement to make an introduction post seriously, so I thought I'd make one and people can introduce themselves in the comments.

I'm chemicallace. I am a graduate student who has been knitting on-and-off for about five years. My knitting interests include lace, historical knitting, and science-themed knitting. Saga, my cat, likes to eat wooden knitting needles and assist with my work. My last finished project was a hat with chromosomes on it and my current one is a Christmas stocking.

Who are you? Anything we should know? Cookies?

I'm nacbrie. I've been knitting for just over a year, moving between fingerless gloves, hats and daleks. I've done two pairs of socks (red and black stripes and superman socks), but I'm looking forward to trying some in wool and non-DK yarn. I'm an undergrad science student, and have discovered that while knitting in lectures can get you some funny looks from the lecturer it's very fun.

And there were cookies mentioned in the post, so I give you the chocolate chip cookie receipe of amazingness.

Heh, yes--I took knitting to the meeting at which HR wanted to tell us all about workplace sexual harassment. Ditto the funny looks, but it kept me awake and ± listening....

True, true. And I like to think the gloves have a little bit of organic chemistry love stitched in with them.
