so I'm teaching myself to knit! my first project was just 4 or 5 rows of stitching. but I fashioned it into this lovely arm band:
haha. I'm just practicing right now. knitting random little scraps to practice casting on and off. when I get the knitting down really well I'll practice purling. I tried learning them together but I kept mixing them up, and for some reason my stitches got really TIGHT when I purled. so I couldn't slide the knitting along the needle anymore.
but ta-da!
if anyone knows any good knitting resources online I would appreciate it! particularly how to read knitting patterns... because I'm absolutely not ready for them yet. but when I am I really want to knit this scarf.
tia.
