here are my latest knitting projects.
This blanket is for my cousin's daughter. It was pretty easy to make, but taught me a lesson in why my stitches don't need to be quite so tight. It was made in squares, and if they aren't all the same they will be lopsided. Which they were. So after completing all 4 squares, I had to undo one and redo it. And then after finishing all 4 sides of the border, I had to undo one purple stripe and redo it. But NOW I think I've learned my lesson.
And I'm finally knitting something for myself, a scarf with a wierd bubbly texture. I got this mystery yarn at Tuesday Morning. No label, no fiber content, just three bits of cardboard with an unknown length of this wierd pink yarn wound around. John thinks this looks like dryer lint, but I quite like it :) In fact, if I have enough left over, I might even make a hat!
