New Project Begun

I just gave up on the dishcloth. It was too complicated for me. I kept messing up entire rows, and it was just very frustrating. So, it's gone...I'll make my mom something else, I'm sure she'll understand. I'll probably knit her a scarf, like I said in the last post I made.

I did start on the Kitschy Kerchief for Cassie. It's going well. I was knitting it too tight though, so I started over because it was becoming impossible to continue knitting, haha. So, I would like to get that done before her birthday, which is June 2nd. Well, I'm not sure when her party is. She's gonna be 10 this year! I got her a bunch of little Lisa Frank stuff, because that's what she's into right now. I'd like to put it all into a gift bag along with the kerchief.

Halfway Done!

So, I'm halfway done with the dishcloth I'm making for my mom. Yepp, it's a little late...okay it's pretty late. But, that doesn't really matter. I did buy her a present at the store, so this is just something extra. I hope it turns out okay =\ It involves a lot of counting...and sometimes I lose track and have to count all over again. Especially if my dad is home. He likes to talk, haha.



I'm thinking about knitting a baby blanket for my little second cousin Madison. She is so adorable. I don't know, I'll ask my cousin if he wants me to once I'm done with everything else. I'm working on the dishcloth right now, then after that I'll finish the pet blanket. Then I'm making Cassie the "Kitschy Kerchief" I hope it turns out okay. I picked out the closest color to hot pink I could find, and it actually is called Hot Pink. So, I hope she likes it!

After that I have a couple things in my queue on Ravelry. I'm not what I'll do after that though. I might work on learning some new knitting techniques. It'd be nice to do something other than knits and purls...haha =) I want to learn to do cables, but I'm not sure how that will work out..lol.

Mother's Day present?

I found the pattern for this dishcloth on Ravelry yesterday. It's very cute, and it's just knits and purls, so I can do it. I just keep messing up! It's seven rows of knitting before you get to the purls, and I do that fine, but then once I get to the purls I always mess up. I end up increasing or decreasing somehow, lol. I am determined to do this to give my mom though! It might not be done FOR Mother's Day, but I will give it to her eventually, lol. I know she's not gonna be mad if she gets it the week after Mother's Day or anything. She'll just be happy I made it for her.
