I have officially mailed in my lesson 3 of basics







I hope that she can tell how hard I tried & can see I've improved over these lessons. I have learned so much!

of blocks and swatches

I finally talked my camera into communicating with my computer and here's some swatches I've been working on as I try to 'master' my own domain. (Lol)

this is known as block one it has many errors I can see a mile away. For one thing I was wrapping my yarn the wrong way & causing funky stitches


I don't know if you can see it clearly, but see that fluffy looking stitch? That's me accidently going back into old habits of wrapping the wrong way!

todays new block


I'm going to have to go take a better pic. This one was a practice block & I like the looks of it thus far.

You will notice here I am trying to learn to do left leaning and right leanning increases. I do not like the left side of my increases, see?


can you see it? GAH. I've got to figure this out. I don't know if it's because I knit left handed or what. I've contacted my instructor for guidance on this. :o(
