30 Day Knitting Challenge: Day 2 What is currently on your needles? I've got two projects on the needles, but one of them is hibernating right now. I'll leave that for tomorrow. My active project, which I just started, is this leaves scarf, which is largely to replace the scarf I lost and discussed in the Day 1 post.
What a lovely Sunday afternoon
30 Day Knitting Challenge? Don't mind if I do
All right, I'm gonna do this. Haven't done much knitting the last six months, but I just FINALLY finished a project and I feel the itch again
Day 1: What was your first finished project?
My first finished project was a red staggered rib scarf. I loved that thing.
Unfortunately I lost it somewhere. I can't believe I lost it, but now it's gone, so that's done. The only picture I have of it is this one as a WIP
Edit: Forgot to post the pattern!

I knitted something! First finished project in six months, regrettably. This is a dog sweater for my mother in law's new puppydog, Itsy. She's two and adorable, and she gets cold sometimes, so I thought I'd help her out. The yarn was something my MIL picked out, so I'm not sure exactly what it is as it did not have the label on it by the time I got to it.
Finished my dad's balaclava! Finally! Only took a couple of days, and I'm left with plenty of time to do my mom's second mitten (attempt #3).
I look like a medieval wench.
Preliminary New Year's Resolutions
1) learn to cook (you know, with something other than a microwave)
2) learn how to knit with multiple colors
3) get a job that doesn't make me want to kill myself
Why I hate knitting things in pairs
Had a terrible experience with a pair of convertible mittens...they were fine, they were great! Nothing wrong! Just a slight color mismatch on the thumb where the color-changing yarn didn't match up quite right, no biggie. But me, the cocky little bugger I am, been knitting all of three months, I decide I'm going to fix it! Yeah! Long story short, five minutes later I'm weeping into a bundle of yarn with a giant hole in it where a mitten used to be.
Fast forward to today, two weeks later, where I'm trying to remake the mistake I made. I'm casting off for the fingerless part, haven't done the mitten cap or the thumb yet, when I decide to try it on. I definitely should have done that before now. Turns out I've knitted a mitten that was 2 inches longer and a good inch bigger around than the first one I made. What am I supposed to do? My boyfriend, the wonderful supportive man that he is, was sitting there with me when I discovered this, and practically had to body tackle me to prevent me from unraveling it and starting it over. He failed, of course, and now I'm left with a re-wound ball of yarn, again weeping into my ball of yarn.
I can't give up! These were a specifically requested Christmas gift. Aaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. I'm just going to take a break, work on the other remaining Christmas gift, and get back to it later. Yes.
This is so fucking pretty. I want it on my needles. And then on my body. If that sounds creepy, I don’t care.
DO WANT
Three of my favorite things: knitting, books, and mint hot chocolate. Why can't I read and knit at the same time?!!!?!? The introvert's dilemma.
Every time I go to the yarn store, I see the Sugar n' Cream yarn and I love the colors so much. I've bought two skeins of the stuff and every time I start to knit with it I think, why the hell did I think this was a good idea? Gross.
First attempt at colorwork. Made them as a gift, but I love them so much I think I might keep them :)
Convertible mitten. I had two, but then I decided I didn't like the thumb on one of them, and I was like, "Oh yeah I know how to fix stuff now," so I unraveled the thumb, but then something got tangled so I tried to cut it but I cut the wrong thing, and long story short I now have a hole where the other mitten used to be. So, I'll make another matching one soon. What happens when you get too cocky.
