I want to try this.

It looks so simple and so complex at the same time - it's the sort of technique that, once you start, you'll be abe to do without thinking about it, but everyone who really looks at what you're doing (who understands knitting even a little bit) will be totally kerflummoxed.

That's beautiful. I once knitted a moebius strip way back in the 60's, but I hadn' thought of a way to cast onto a circular needle. Instead I cast onto a pair of regular needles, or more like a triangle of pairs of needles. It was very stiff until I got a few rows done.

Crocheting moebius strips was easier.

It is so so fun! Like, one of the funnest things I've ever done! Just do it and don't even think about it until you're halfway through, you'll LOVE it.

I knit a Moebius scarf last year with this technique and it was amazingly easy once you got going. It just goes round and round and you hardly realize you're at the end of a row 'cause it's still going round and round never ending. ^_^
