Anyone else do this? You grab a ball or two of yarn, cast on some random number of stitches, and start knitting? I love doing this, not knowing the outcome. Sometimes it turns into a scarf, or a hat, or a cowl, or a mess that i unravel and wind back on the nøstepinne.

Yes, I do that. It has Helped me to figure out how patterns look like, how much yarn it takes, in which needle size the pattern looks better. I've learned a lot by experimenting.
