It's my favorite time of the year! We attended a party last night and sat around a fire and had good scary food! Saw my co-workers in great costumes! Hope to share an image of that later today - we are a goofy bunch!
I have started a knitting stash....YIKES! It's a bit more challenge to purchase yarn, you really need to ensure you pick it for a specific project to get enough. I have started my first dishcloth, I'm almost done - this picture is at the half way point - I'm further a long now:
And my new stash. First picture is for my first scarf. It's called Molly's Scarf.
And this yarn is was on clearance and I really want some fingerless gloves and maybe a matching scarf or hat...I think I'm going to call Theresa at Forget Me Knot to see if there is 2 more left:
I want to get two dishcloths out of the way and then I'll start my scarf! I'm soo excited!
Oh and please add me if you are on Raverly.com - I'm quiltingpirate.
I think I'm going to adjust my name now .....the knitting & quilting pirate? :)
You caught on to knitting fast and are doing a great job. The yarn is yummy. I can't wait to see more.
ReplyDeleteWoo-- look at you go! You're going to be a knitting pro in no time. Mmm... pretty yarn.
ReplyDeleteYou did find some yummy yarns! I've made several of those dishcloths and love them. I've also used the pattern to make a baby blanket.
ReplyDeleteNaaaaa...
ReplyDeleteYou don't need to adjust your name, 'cause if you do then I'll have to do so and I like being "The Quilter". There's a wonderful pattern on knitty.com for fingerless mitts called fetching. When you get a bit further along these are good because they have a bit of cables and picking up stitches to add the thumb.
