Default Knitting speed ??

Had a speed trial this morning.

With circular needles, I knit ~ 100 stitches per minute.
With DPN and sheath, I knit ~ 160 stitches per minute. I'm sure some
of you can do better than that with circulars, but it is better than
the 20 spm that I was doing 4 years ago when I asked the group for
help and they converted me from American style to Continental style.
I am happy with my progress. : ) It lets me actually FO!

Is it only nerds that watch the clock when they knit? ( I only do
that a couple of times per year.)


Good for you, Aaron! I have to confess that I have never timed myself, but
your numbers are quite impressive.

HIgs,
Katherine
