My first knitting project!

Here it is! This was my first time using a knitting pattern. I knew how to knit and purl, but not very well. The only thing that I had knit previous to this were maybe 3 scarves, that were mostly all knit stitch. I'm pretty stoked, even though it's not perfect. I'm easily distracted, and I have a toddler, so there are lots of errors. I won't point them out, but they are there. I used this pattern  from ravelry, and patons classic wool yarn. Since sewing with upcycled sweaters for the shop, I have so much love for wool things, especially 100% wool. I hope to cast on something new within the next week, but have to find some seamless needles that I like better.

Also, I will be at a local show on November 10th-11th, come see me if you are in the area.  I will have all sorts of longies, soaker, diaper covers, and maybe a few surprises ;) Hope to see you there.
