The Awesomeness of Kureyon

I can't put this down. I love it so much. I have finished 3 balls and 25 rows. I have 3 more balls and 12 more rows to go plus fringe. I figured when I started this I might end up having to buy 3 or 4 more balls, but I'm still not quite sure. One of my earliest set of calculations suggested that by the time I get to row 30 I'm going to be using 1 ball per row. I sincerely hope that's not true.
The not-so-awesome part about Kureyon is, of course, KNOTS. Of those 3 balls, 2 had knots. I tried something new this time: instead of cutting and restarting like the books tell you to do, I pulled the knot as tight as I could, then gave it the old Spit and Spin until the strand was all felted up and the knot was no longer even visible, then just kept on going. I may live to regret this. BTW, I pulled out the end of Ball 4 already and, right at the beginning, a knot. I did cut that one off, though, and put that starting length with the ends I'm saving to use in the fringe.

Wow this is very pretty. Yin got in my crochet and pulled out my second square. I am GONNA beat that little monster.
That looks beautiful! I had the same troubles with Noro yarn. Very fun to work with, though.
