Vacation, all I ever wanted!

I'm gone for the next (almost) 2 weeks relaxing and canoeing! I'll be knitting in Duluth, but probably won't get much done in the BWCAW. Should be a good trip. Lots of photobucket pics when I get back!

Lace Success

I started work on this beautiful scarf last night. It is a lace pattern, and I'm feeling less and less like a lace failure all the time :-)

I have a Photobucket account now!

I think this yarn will be the end of me some day. The thing it likes to do best is slip off my needle when I'm not looking, causing all sorts of trouble in my pattern! It's a good thing it is so pretty!

Here is the scarf I'm making for Erik. It's tedious, but looks pretty cool. It will be very warm in the winter, which is when it will finally be done :-)

This was my first real project. Not to bad, huh?

Pictures

Today I have the entire day off. Aside from continuing to clean and organize our spare room, I think I'll be taking pictures of my yarn stash for Ravelry. Maybe I'll upload some more pictures on Flickr too... but that might be too much ambition for one day ;-)

Flickr

I did it, I made a flickr account so I can print pictures!

First Knitting Blog and...Babies!

Here goes my latest attempt at blogging. I'm hoping to use this blog to post pictures of my latest knitting projects and help me stay on task by being more accountable for this hobby :-) We'll have to see how well it works!

On another note, several of my friends will be having babies this fall! I think it's time to learn how to knit booties!
