Needles? 3.25mm.
Say What? Exactly. Teeny tiny. Might as well be knitting on toothpicks
Knitting? Summer shawl
For whom? Me, of course!
Started? Mid April
End in sight? Holy Mother of God, none that I can see
Colour? Tealy green
Material? Cotton
Stitches? Sixteen thousand million, and still casting on
Swear words used? Not many, but the urge to stick needles in eyeballs has surfaced.
Lesson learned? We've invented machines for things like this now. Move on.

Oh, sounds familiar! I'm working on the textured shawl (the one soulemama made earlier) on 3mm needles...

Bismillah, alhamdu lillah, wassalatu wassalam 'ala rasulillah
"Holy Mother of ..." is not particularly appropriate for a believer to say, Debbie.
You have to repent, and you might have to take a shower and say the shahada anew, because it's a statement of shirk!
See this and this.
Inshaa Allah, I hope this benefits you and may Allah guide us all, ameen. I hope you're not offended, but take this as the sincere advice it is intended to be, i wish you only the best.
I understand that it's a figure of speech, but it's highly inappropriate, and I don't want you to stay unaware of that.
SubhaanakAllahumma wa bihamdil, ash-hadu an laa ilaaha illa Ant, astaghfiruka wa atubu ilayk

I was waiting for someone without a sense of humour to be the first to speak. If you want to give dawah then email me.
