Socks, knit one...rip one...knit two.

I knit a sock and it was too small, I really love this self stripping yarn and I wanted these socks for myself. I thought about finishing them and then giving them to somebody whom they would fit but the more I thought about it the more I wanted them for myself so I ripped the first one out and used another pattern and now they are wonderful, they fit me so good. I am so glad that I went ahead and ripped out that first sock and started over.

I've got to get organized.

I have 2 huge storage boxes full of yarn. I am looking for ideas on how to store your knitting supplies with out such a mess. I have all of my knitting needles in a plastic bag right now, I do sew some and I have been meaning to sew something to store my needles in. I have a pencil bag that is made of mesh that I keep my small stuff in like my scissors and measuring tape, and I have a m&m mini's tube that I store my yarn needles in. I would love to have a small place that looks like a yarn store when I go to start a project

It's fall and I have the knitting bug.

I love knitting, it is getting cooler out side and I start thinking about warmer stuff to wear. I have just finishoned hats for my daughter and my neice so they will be warm walking all over college campus. My daughters hat is black and white and looks like a panda and my neices hat is solid black and has kitty ears. They were easy to make and only took a couple of days.
