Needless to say, I was pretty much starting from scratch.
Here is the first photo I showed, a project from the Craftsy class I'm taking that is my 'refresher-but-really-from-scratch' class. I think it's funny that you can see where I first started how the sides were all lumpy, but then I figured it out ;-)
So I'm basically addicted now, and I've since finished the lace scarf. Here is Charlotte being very generous with the reluctant-model side-eye.
I've also casted (casted? cast?) on a couple more things!
The blue scarf on the left is the next project from the Craftsy class, and I'm working on seed stitch and different sizes of basket weave.
The purple-ish one is a cowl pattern I found on Ravelry, and it's a very simple offset rib. I've actually made a good bit of progress on this, and have finished the first of three skeins. I'd like to be able to wear it while it's still cold out!
I know that most of y'all are quilters, but I'm finding that a lot of quilters are also knitters. Are you? What have you been working on? Do you find that there seems to be a knitting 'season'? I'm loving the coziness of this!
yes, I am primarily a quilter, but I also knit (and occasionally crochet). When I need a break from quilting, or want some tv time where I actually watch the show (as opposed to listen to it), I knit.
ReplyDeleteI still have to look at my knitting! I'll get there one day :-)
Deleteyou are coming along so quickly. I can no longer knit due to arthritic knuckles but still find I can crochet and needle tat
ReplyDeleteThat purple yarn is so lustrous and lovely! I can't wait to see your progress. I am always overjoyed to find another quilter-knitter. (I like to call myself a triple threat because I can also sew a dress when I want to. :) ) So glad you are enjoying knitting!
ReplyDeleteYou really are a triple threat! I've done VERY minimal garment sewing - it scares me! But I'd like to give it a try someday!
