kreativiT is making a list of 43 things before 44.
It starts next Monday and runs for three weeks. By the end I will be able to bind off, increase and decrease stitches and read a pattern – all things I have never done (by myself in recent history). Yeah! I’m doing this!

Had a beginner knitting DVD that is really good. I watched it tonight and practiced knitting and purling for about an hour. It has been so long since I learned but it came right back. I think I’m ready to pull out the sock pattern and see how that goes.

The toe was a bit traumatic, but I finally got used to the eensy weensy needles and started enjoying myself.
Now I’m stuck at the heel and I’m afraid. Very afraid.
Working through it! It would be nice to have one sock by the time Christmas rolls around. At least one of my feet would be warm!

This year I will attempt to knit my mom some socks for Christmas. It seems like a daunting task as I have to figure out how to use double pointed needles, but I think I can hack it eventually after much practice perhaps.

Ok, I’ve started a few times, but I keep getting confused….
I love the yarn I picked up, though, so I think I’ll keep trying!

I’ve wanted to learn how to knit socks for awhile now-I actually took a sock knitting class but I was totally lost- I don’t know how to purl- just knit- and the other students were experienced knitters so I was lost from the get go….. So still no socks. But the other day I was at the library and found a knitting group there- and they said they’d be happy to work with me and teach me to purl and then knit socks so maybe it will happen this time…..

I love handknit socks, I just wish I could make them for myself.

I’ve been knitting for a couple of months now, but mostly scarves, hats, soakers, dishcloths, etc. I’d love to move on to socks! I don’t have any sock yarn, so I’m ordering some from KnitPicks along with some smaller dpns. When they arrive, I’ll be on my way!
