Jo Knits!

slow knitter

Look at what I knitted today! ;)

Just had fun playing with PaintShop Pro, it's been a while since I've used it, Lucas's face looks weird but I'm too lazy to change that.

As I was working on my 2nd fuzzy feet slipper last night, I realized I forgot to cast on 4 stitches at the beginning! OOPS! To the frog pond I went and now I've started over, I'm right and the heel part. Today I was so busy, haven't even picked up my needles yet.

Tomorrow I should possibly have time to go buy some more Aero circular needles that I can get 50% off at a crafting store. I should just buy them in every sizes instead of going back each month and hoping they'll still have the size I want this time. LOL!

I really like knitting with biggers needles and getting instant results, just like knitting with these size 11 DPN's and Lopi yarn. I'm a really slow knitter, maybe continental knitting would be beneficial for me. Funny thing is that I'm left-handed in all parts of life, why is it that I knit english style! LOL! Well actually it's simple, I learn knitting by watching a video online. I shoul've paid more attention to the continental way, I heard that english method was easier to get down so that's what I learned. The day I learned knitting I wanted to knit right away, didn't want to meet gauge or anything, just had the urge to knit and NOW! ;)

I just received some great heart patterns to make dish/facecloths! They will be very cute to give away with soap, that's whenever I'll have a gift to give away. LOL! Anyone want a gift from me? ;)

Well today was a very busy thursday, so off to sleep.... I mean knit before I go to sleep! ;)

A quick test result 1st!


What Was Your PastLife?

hugs,

p/s: how could I ever forget, I just did my 1st ever trade!!!!!! Kate is sending me my 1st EZ book!!! :) Knitting without tears should make it's appearance to my doorstep early next week! I am SOOOOOOOOOO excited, I just can't find any Elizabeth Zimmemann books locally, it's actually ridiculous even. Why are they so hard to find in Montreal? Anyways, this is a made in heaven trade, since Kate is getting in return a book she's been wanting too! Best of trades in my book. :)
