One thing I love about knitting is that it gives me concrete ways to think about numbers. In a couple of weeks I’ll be turning thirty-six, which is a pleasing, versatile square number with lots of useful divisors. I’m thinking about doing a small series of designs that explore this number in different ways, as a way to think about the coming year and what I want to do with it.
In short: I am a nerd.

But a wonderful, beautiful, intelligent, amazingly creative nerd. So there.
I <3 you. So nice to see an update!
I love that idea!
Nerd! (but only the very best kind)
Congrats on your impending 3-6 — I survived mine on the 6th of this month, so you’re in good company!
Mathy yarn patterns are great. I’m looking forward to seeing what you come up with.
PS. I have issues with social anxiety too. Spending a lot of time in therapy to try and deal with it. I hope you’re overcoming your anxieties too.
HEALTHY and happy belated birthday!! 36 is a great number … means double life.
Oh, 18 is Life.
