So I decided after reading Saturday Night Knitting Club with my book club, that I too could learn to knit. The first step for me was picking up a dollar tube knitting kit at Joanns! Well I whipped through that.. and started my search for how to books. Then while at AC Moore the other day I came across a book using Provo Crafts Knifty Knitter which is a round knitter not needles. Looked perfect and easy to me, so I bought the book, a four pack of the Knifty Knitters, and a bag of cheapy yarn to practice with. Hubby said he wanted to see a finished project within a month. I decided then to make him a hat, and finished two days.. can you believe it.
Here is a picture of me sporting the hat, which came out just a big large, guess the measurements in the book are just estimates.
Here is a picture of the hat all on it's own, see how it came out pretty long!
And here is a picture of the very "fancy" cuff I added at the bottom!
I think next on my list is some socks.. and then once I master this knitter, I think I'll still give those needles a try!
