I can now knit and purl!




Forgive the angle & the quality, I'm trying out my new webcam that came with the laptop. I'm thinking my Nano present to myself this year might be a new camera.

I'm going to try blocking it tonight, even it out a bit. The whole thing narrowed slightly once I got better at it, and I think blocking it will fix that. Next step is to learn how to increase, so I'll be making a shawl. Which means I need to get to another yarn store to get more yarn and needles.

I have to go on a road trip next Friday. I have yarn for one more project, but I might finish that before then!! (it's a repeat of the first scarf, only with the right kinds of yarn, which I didn't have the first time)
So I ordered more yarn online last night to learn how to make triangles, hopefully it will get here in time.

Triangles?! I am impressed. Then again, I am also woefully ignorant. ^_^

(I also just noticed the little warrior looking over your shoulder in the picture. Awesome.)

Yeah, next step is to learn how to 'increase' so I can make things other than rectangles. Then 'decreasing.' I don't particularly want a shawl, or a purse (the decreasing project) but I think it's good to make them just so I learn that trick when it's the only trick I need to learn and not try to figure out how to increase and decrease plus other stuff when making a sweater.

Hee! You noticed my lamp! It was a birthday present from my parents on year. They found a plaster of paris 'terracotta warrior' one year and decided that I had to have it, and that it had to be a lamp.
