Knitting - progress!

Just a wee progress post to show how far I've gotten with my knitting - I'm rather proud. It's several rows of stocking stitch (you can't tell cause looking at it now I took a pic of the wrong side *headdesk* I'm very clever, really), and now I've started with ribbed stitching.

 
I'm rather chuffed, I didn't think I'd pick it up so quick. Still no idea what this will become, but right now I'm just happy to be doing it. And yup, for those playing at home, this was taken with my knitting resting on my Snoopy blanky. Because I am just that cool.

Happy Crafting! x

A new and exciting project

So, I've decided to take up a new project/hobby. Knitting. 

Now, it's not really a new hobby. I used to knit when I was younger, but found that I got frustrated with how long the process took. However, my recent love affair with cardigans has encouraged me to get back into it. 

So thisevening I started a new project. I've re-taught myself how to do basic/knit stitch. And I've taught myself to purl, and as such have completed my first few rows of stocking stitch. This is greatly exciting. 

I think I'm making a coffee cozie. It's intended to be a coffee cozie. I am not hopeful it will become a coffee cozzie. It may become some form of...hat or ear warmer thing. We'll see. 

Anyway, I'll let y'all know how the knitting goes!
