So lately I've embarked on this knitting voyage - One that's proven to be quite difficult. I made a few things before, like little squares, but they were quite pitiful. Ross asked me to make his little niece, Baby Audrey, a scarf. We went to Micheal's Craft Store and picked out Lion Brand Velvetspun in carnation. It calls for 10 1/2 size needles. I Cast on 10 stitches and knit the whole thing until it looked long enough. Immediately, I noticed it was very forgiving. I have a problem with consistency in tightness of my stitches, but this stuff is so fluffy you can't tell! I'm ecstatic I finally finished something... Here it is! Please give me your feedback, I want to improve!
Next on the needles, a scarf requested by Ross. I'm going to use suede yarn in a coffee color. Hopefully it looks a little more manly than baby Audrey's scarf.
In other news, I'm judging home school debate today. Fun? Not so much. But I love helping people learn to be better debaters. I have a tournament next weekend. I plan on doing quite well :)
Being back at LU is great. My roommates are... well... lets not talk about them.
Until next time...
