More needles -- and more lace!

I got most of my needles listed on Ravelry.  There are a few currently in WIPs that aren't entered yet, but otherwise -- it's all there.

Very revealing .... just not sure what I've revealed.

For example, I vastly prefer 4 and 5" dpns (they're called sock needles now).  And yet I seem to have an alarmingly high percentage of 7 1/2 - 8"  and even 10" dpns.  I've got about a dozen sets of size 2's -- ten of which are longer than I like to use.  I've also got ten pair of size 1's, seven of which are, you guessed it, longer than I like to use. What is up with that? (and yes, I'm more than happy to sell off those long dpns - as long as I have any shorter ones too.) 

Okay, most of them were bought when I couldn't find short needles.  But still... ten sets???

I've freaked myself out enough for one day, so I started some serious work on Inebriate of Air.  Even though the design was inspired by not knitting Emily Dickinson, which has lace only at the bottom edge, lace seems to have broken out with a vengeance around the shoulders in Inebriate of Air. 

 Clearly, I have no control over this thing. 

However, the good part is, I'm approaching the finish line.

Pretty! And I'm with you on the DPN length - I don't like anything longer than 6" (and prefer 5"), unless I absolutely need the longer length.

So pretty. Love the color.
