I was surprised and delighted to find that my replacement Addi’s had arrived already when I checked the post today. With Robyn still here I was able to knit while she and Isabelle played together at the Magic Yellow Bus.

I also got some more knitting time in during the car ride home after dropping Robyn at the airport and fetching Jesse from work. The good news is the armholes were shaped stress free:

The bad news is that these new needles were much better the the ones I returned but they still had one join with a rough spot which caught the yarn every time I pulled it across the join on that side. I just want to get on with my knitting so I got out my nail file and now it’s perfect. I really must follow Maggie Righetti’s advice and buy nail file for my knitting bag.
