Nearly 2 Years of Knitting
I signed up for knitting classes in May 2004, right around may 10th to be exact. I know because I can go look at my old blog and see the exact day I blogged about it. So that means in May I will have been knitting for exaclty 2 years. I kept thinking it was longer but I guess not. Lets hope I'm not bad and go stash crazy over May m'kay?
Durring my first 4 months of knitting I learned to cable, work on DPN's and I finished a felted bag that I wound up hating. I started several things I never finished including the cable scarf and the sock. The first clothing item I finished was a Chickami tank top. Well enough about my knitting past, I'm looking forward to my knitting future!
I got my husband a Gas Grill for his birthday from Home Depot, so I picked up... BATTERIES!! YAY! lol
Yay, I am blonde again! My hair dresser in Atlanta is a freakin genius. If you need a good person I can give you his number. He's off Pharr road in Buckhead and one street over from "Why Knot Knit".
Charisse you rock, thanks again!
I got some Rowan Cotton Wool (good lord this stuff is expensive) to try a good wool/cotton blend to make a tank top from. I am going to go back to my roots and do that ribby pattern from rowan that I originally wanted to do so long ago. Oh and look, I started my Sockapaloooza sock!! Don't worry I am still working on ES 2.0, it's just not an impressive photo to take, tho I am nearly at the bottom :)

My first clothing item I knitted (I don't count the paris loop because its not really clothes..) was the Chickami as well. I knitted it in Sugar n' Cream kitchen cotton because I had no clue there were other kinds of cotton out there. Oy.. I ended up with a tank top so stiff it would have stopped bullets!

Your hair looks great! If I lived closer to Atlanta, I'd ask you for the hairdresser's number. =) Those needles are beautiful!

hahaha only a knitter would give directions to their hairdresser by stating how close it is to the nearest yarn store ;o)
Your hair looks great!
