"I've made a lot of special modifications myself."

That's right, I'm casting on (or will be once I'm done telling you about it) a Millennium Falcon for my sister. Apparently I'm knitting her a whole fleet of starships. She's got a Firefly-class, now it's time to jump universii and knit this. Unfortunately, there are no patterns for such a project, so I'm making it up myself. I've done the research, marked the plans, and have done preliminary pattern writing. Today I acquired the yarn (thanks, mom!), and, as soon as I figure out what size needles to use, we'll be good to go.
