knitting!

ok so it is cold again today after being in the upper 50's and GORGEOUS yesterday so this post fits LOL!

I participate in an online swapping group where all crafts are represented and this is one of my projects from there. I was quite proud of it having not done that much knitting! The fiber was funky and full of knots and stretched pieces and all kinds of color! I fell in love with it when I saw it at the store and thought well this will be forgiving of my inexperience and not show dropped or missed stitches! HA HA HA HA and did I say HA HA HA HA!

That was the hardest darn fiber I have ever worked with and it showed the mistakes - as the colors lined up to create a design when you knit it!

Well It came out quite nice and I was so pleased that I instantly bagged it up and shipped it off - NOT taking a picture of my hard work - ughhhh!

Well my partner was kind enough to photograph herself wearing it and she said she really liked it and enjoyed the bright fun colors. She also called me brave for picking this fiber to work with. he he if only she knew how many times I pulled it out and restarted LOL!

Anyway my fingers can't take the knitting so they have been hung up so to say but I was glad I gave it a try!

later...............................
