Knitting is a disease

I mentioned I took up knitting. You start knitting, and you can't stop. It's a real sickness.

My husband may kill me because I've discovered this very neat yarn shop. My first purchase was $50 of yarn + one needle.

My first finished project was from Knitty.

There it is over to the side. Some mistakes, but for my first knitting attempt I was quite happy.

I started working on another project which I am getting ready to unravel and try again. I began working in the round with circular needles. That part wasn't bad, but I didn't realize that stockinette stitch in the round is done differently than when flat. Ooops. Oh well, I'll unravel it and try again.
