Where does the time go?!


I can't believe its already the end of April! Time really flies when your having fun, huh?


I actually did something this month, that I had never done before! I have a real love-hate relationship with knitting. I taught myself a couple years ago, with a kit my hubby had given me for Christmas. I could knit simple scarves and anything that was bacially...uh well flat!


This month, I learned DPN's! All by myself!

DPN's or double pointed needles was a major challenge for me. First, I had NO idea how to use them. I had knitted with a circular needles and that wasnt too bad..but ugh... I was in for a fight!

I think it took me about 10 tries to get a decent finished hat. I would get half done, and screw something up and have no idea how to fix it, so I would pull everything out and try again. The finished hat is adorable though. So, I wont complain too much!

Now i'm working on a few new designs. Who knows if I will ever get them accomplished though!
