> By the way, if you are a software type, I would highly recommend knitting.

I can attest to this. I’m still very much an amateur, but have really enjoyed getting to the point where I can start to picture a shape I want and mold it with a combination of k2tog and kfb.

That said do you have any suggestions on knitting resources for the more programming/engineering minded? Picking a pattern and the exact matching yarn and following along stitch by stitch is not terribly interesting to me. I’ve much more enjoyed figuring out how to design/size things from scratch, but that approach is not how most knitting resources I’ve come across are written. I would love to find some tutorials that focus more generically on things like various approaches to making an elbow or splitting one cylinder into multiple, etc.
