Knitting time!

Ok, so after asking Jonette to commission 2 scarves for me I started wondering if I could also learn how to make my own. And we only got around to that teaching and learning session this weekend. :) (As a bonus, I got to meet Tweed! Her handsome cat!)

I got #5 knitting needles and a ball of grey cotton ease yarn. She taught me how to do the knit and purl. Well, she ended up teaching me about frogging too because I am terrible at some of my stitches. Tension is something I haven't quite gotten the hang of just yet.

Jonette and PJ are both addicted to yarn work XD In their blogs you will see their blog entries about projects they are working on. PJ is crocheting a hat similar to the one Jonette gave me.

It's a nice and comfy hat and I really love it :)
