Let's Knit...

some more, because I don't knit enough!!
I keep saying to myself, "what did I do before"?
I'm not sure.

Exciting news, 
I have taken two more classes, on "my" Alpaca farm
and I am having the time of my life!

Wonderful people, new friends and the perfect view!

First up, The Lace Headband 

 This class was on April 22nd, 

 not too difficult,

and I learned a lot of new stitches.
It's much easier to learn new stitches, 
when you are working on a small project.

 I finished it pretty quickly, with only a few mistakes.
I think the pattern is beautiful.
This now needs to be "blocked" so it does not look so wavy,
and I have to put the button on.

I also finished two more hats,
these are now, mindless, quick and easy projects.

So ya' feelin' me now...
I have been knitting for less than one year,
what in the world did I use to do??

Tomorrow, I will show you my newest project,
"it's what's on my needles now".
(I have always wanted to say that!!)

 Sharing today's knitting fun with
Stephanie at The Enchanting Rose
Stop by and say Hi!! 
There are lots are very talented and creative people there!!

    You are a super knitter! Love all your work Debbie. I took up knitting last year, but I am not really getting the "hang of it". I muddle along though and have managed to make several scarfs, and hats, and I am now in the process of knitting a huge afghan. Something to keep me busy over the long hot summer.

    *I used to use manual focus for my bird shots, but with the MS not being kind to my sight, I now use auto.

    Hi Debbie, wow your knitting has fair come on. I'm very impressed :) I use to knit many many years ago and recently started up again. I knitted a few hats over the winter, and I've nearly finished a wee jumper for Riley. I hate sewing things up though. I think I should just knit a blanket then I wouldn't need to sew anything up lol.
    Keep those needles clicking! :))

    These beautiful things you are knitting could turn into a heirloom one day. Wish I knew how to knit I'd make me a beautiful shawl with long tassels.

    I love seeing your projects!!! I totally wondered what you did too, I can't remember when you didn't knit and you are so good, it is you are doing all of that in just a year.
    I love your new stitches!
