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.)

Aaron
