I have decided that the hardest thing about being a new knitter is that I just want to keep starting new projects. Every time I see something new and pretty, I go -- OOH! I WANT TO MAKE THAT! And most of the time, I've been getting the yarn to do just that, and it's become a very dangerous habit because all I have been doing lately is starting new projects. I haven't been doing so well with getting them done =( I AM working on it, but today I added another new project to the list. But this one shouldn't take all that long to complete. Here it is:
I know this picture is huge, but I just HAD to make it big and pretty. It's going to be the cowboy hat that is out of the Stitch-N-Bitch The Happy Hooker. The book shows it in red, but I just LOVE this color. The yarn is Rowan All-Seasons Cotton and I'm crocheting with two strands together. I started it today and i've already done the top part and turned the corner to head down to the brim! I'm so EXCITED! Here is my other project that I didn't start today, but I'd LOVE to have done in a week for my trip to Florida because it would look absolutally FABULOUS!
I know that this isn't the entire thing, but I figured that I'd zoom in on the pattern so that you can see what it looks like. So far I've gotten the front panel done and the upper right side of the front and I shaped the right side of the neck and now I'm progressing on the back! It's a cardigan that's out of The Happy Hooker and I think it looks amazing in the book and I hope it comes out looking just as good!
Well, I believe that is all for now. I just had to make a few quick updates. I will NOT be writing so many post in one day again. This is just TOO MUCH work for me! haha =) I'll probably end up writing something tomorrow though! Maybe it will be a picture of my FINISHED cowboy hat! YAY =) Until next time.
