I started knitting a few years ago when an old roommate taught me. Thanks KRISTA!!! Since then I think I have taught just about everyone I have lived with, my mom, and the now the girl I volunteer for at Room to Grow. It is such a neat hobby! You can virtually do it anywhere, it only requires a couple of supplies, and it’s a great conversation starter!!!
A few weeks ago I finished the first of MANY baby projects for one of my BEST friends, Melyssa, & her baby boy. I got a late start on this because of the chaos that has been my life the last few months, but I ended up finishing it before his birth. Yay!!! I knitted a matching beenie for him too, hopefully it will fit. I think this is my 7th baby blanket with roughly the same pattern & I am looking to switch it up a little bit for the next one…
I have been working on a scarf for Nick made out of the yarns we picked up on the Aran islands on our honeymoon. I wanted to get this done by Thanksgiving, but I am not sure I am going to make it. I am not quite half way done, so I better get a move on. :)
Three weekends ago we took the bus (Fung Wah) into Boston to see Lindsay. The ride was 4+ hours so I took a new knitting project along with to occupy my time. Unfortunately in the hubbub of rushing to catch an earlier bus, I left all of my knitting & snacks below the bus on the way out there, so I whipped this up on our way back to NYC. I have tried numerous hats for myself over the years and they have all been just OK, UNTIL this one -
I think I will call this the “fung wah”
I found a pattern on Lion Brand’s web-site & I LOVE IT!!! Now I want to make one in every color…
