In which I commence to knit
So, I have taken up knitting. I've finished one thing and I'm working on a second. It is an interesting social experiment, or something.
I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. It's all just garter stitch, 16 stitches on a row, 20 rows per color. It ended up being about four and a half feet long before I felt like it was finished, and it's about three inches across. I wanted a long, skinny, lightweight scarf and I think I succeeded. No pattern, just practicing a knit stitch.
Now I'm working on the "Ribbed-for-Her-Pleasure" scarf that's in the first Stich'n'Bitch (which is a great book for people just starting out knitting). This seems to be a popular project, and it's going well so far. Now that I've gotten the hang of cursed purling.
So, that's that. I'm on Ravelry if anyone else is.
