Hi Jenny, I said I'd ask my Sis what her dh's problem was with the dizziness and blackouts so here is her response. (Something you could ask the doc to check anyway.)

Okay, I'm not a newbie, I have been knitting for three years, but while I know that stockinette (and I assume reverse stockinette) will roll up from side to side, I don't remember that it rolls up from the cast-off edge. Am I just not remembering, or is my piece doing something weird? I have...

Hard to believe it's spring. We've got about 1/4 inch of snow in places, roads are clear, sidewalks are mostly clear but icy, and trees and roofs are coated with snow as well. It's foggy where I am, not too dense, but just gorgeous, adding an element of mystery to the day. Feels more like winter...
