Scarves

I'm going through a scarf phase. It started almost a month b4 I found out a family member has cancer. The day I bought a tubular bandana from a discount store I found out three hours later about the cancer. B4 that my family and I were each trying on the scarf for fun and taking pics(2nd pic).

The first one is one I bought to practice furoshiki. The next picture shows how silly we were with the tubular bandana. I do have pictures with our faces showing but I like to keep our privacy.  

Knitting baby color beanie hat

I have a new hobby; knitting. As I stated earlier I just learned how to finger knit this past weekend. Yesterday I went to michaels and got half a dozen yarn balls and a children's kit for learning to knit a hat. It's fun. I got a loom with the kit. I loom knitted a blue scarf yesterday. Then I went on to start a hat project. Fun!!

Apparently I have made enough of the hat that the length I have knitted is now longer than the string attached to the anchor peg. At first I thought my daughter did something to it this morning. She was looking at it and telling me to hurry up with her hat. 😄

2:35pm the length of my hat is ready for my audience. How do I finish? Gotta look at the directions and tutorial on YouTube.


6:51pm. I finished my first beanie hat! ;-) . Daughter likes it. Ice as complimented on it by my family.

New Hobby 4.14.13

Yesterday I learned a new hobby; finger knitting. My m-i-l learned it by watching tutorials on YouTube. I tried my best yesterday to learn on my own. I finally got it right when she showed me yesterday. She tried to teach her mother, however, she kept wanting to flip the yarn on the pointer finger first instead of the pinky finger. So far I've made two scarves or belt for a child. They sure Wong fit me.
