My most exciting accomplishment (beyond shoveling a lot of poo) is knitting a hat for michael.
I'm making him a hat with ear flaps! I'm so proud that my first knitted had is a complex hat. I finished the hat part yesterday and today I started on the first earflap. I taught myself via excellent web instructions on knittinghelp.com how to "pick up stitches" and how to make an "i-cord".
As you can see from my model, I've still got a way to go on the cord.
AND Melinda, clued me in on the best blog, a blog that I aspire to emulate, crazyauntpurl.com
After reading some of this woman's blogs, I realized that I have much in common with her...I too am pretty hermity, I like to knit, and I have a cat that I enjoy photographing...I can see where some of the stereotypes of crazy knitting cat ladies come from. I am becoming a crazy knitting cat-n-camelid lady.
Perhaps one day I'll next knit some outfits for my alpacas.
