learning to knit – the Crochet by Erin blog

Yes I am STILL knitting the same scarf I started last week. I added a few rows of another color and I think it looks so much better.

Last night I knitted for 2.5 hours, while watching Netflix. The longest I’ve knitted. That long strip after the second purple is what I knitted. And I still have a decent size ball of yarn left.

I just want to be done so I can move on.

My fiance and I got chinese food yesterday at a place called Bali Village. They are so good! Well all I eat is the crab rangoon and chicken fingers.

Most of the time the fortune cookies are gibberish.But this one , with what has been going on lately with me, makes sense. “A peaceful mind generates power” . Without going into much detail.. my fiance’s mother and I don’t always get along. I hate fighting. with anyone. I am a peaceful person. Well before I moved in with Jon and his mom 4 years ago. She annoys me at times. I believe this fortune is telling me to stay calm and I will have the power to change our lives ( Jon and I) .Love not war..lol

Maybe I should just knit more 🙂

Now that I learned how to knit and am obsessed with it what shall my first project be? On my only pair of needles now is a scarf or maybe a headband. It depends on long this ball of yarn, that I didn’t measure yardage for, will last. It may also be a cowl. I have some cute buttons I could use . But then I would have to learn how to knit buttonholes. I don’t think I am ready for that.

I like purling.

I mean REALLY like it. hehe 🙂

here is my project…. I am a slow knitter. My project is able to reach around my neck but I still have yarn left so I will continue.
