OK, 2nd sock took 45 minutes. So a bit longer than it felt like, but an amount of time is easily spend scrolling/watching videos/etc.

Thanks! Hoping to try some color patterns soon, though that looks like it involves sewing in a lot more ends.

I bought the loom and then put it off for ages anticipating a big project, and then finished it up chatting while my kid picked up Legos.

Gosh darn it, you’ll make me blush.

Old lath and plaster for me, so they don’t work that well.

I hadn’t considered thermal shock, good caution.

The other advantage of the water bottle is not adding more moisture to the problem.
