The work begins!!

We have officially kicked off the Fearless Knitting KAL on Ravelry! This is going to be fun! Prizes are going to be awarded by drawings for those who finish each chapter on time!!!

I am also participating in a Mystery KAL with She_knits! This is fun! It is going to be a shawlette! Let me see if I can get the picture to post!

Okay...there it is at the top. This is the finished piece of the first clue. Cool, huh?

I will post soon about the first chapter of the book!

Ravelry Group

Rachelynn and I have created of group on Ravelry for anyone who wants to work through the book together! It should be lots of fun! I am so psyched and ready to get started! Check it out! I'll post a link as soon as I figure out how!

I have done a quick scan through the book. I really look forward to gaining an understanding of gauge and how an actual stitch works. Does that make sense? I am one to not pay attention to gauge and I can see that my finished projects suffer for it. I am quite tired of putting all the time and love into a project and it comes out looking...well...crappy!

Don't get me wrong! I can knit a mean washcloth! But, I am on hat number 2 for my brother because I just knew if I used the size 13 needles and double the yarn it would turn out just fine! Well, it didn't! It was HUGE and mis-shaped!!! AAAUUUGGGHHH!!!!

Thanks to my first follower!!!! I am tickled to have you!!! :o)

The Beginning.....

I love to knit!!! I hate to knit!!! No, I take that back. I really love it. I just don't understand it!!! Even though I have been knitting off and on for around 20 years, I still feel like an amateur!!! I am going to tackle the Fearless Knitting Workbook-The Step-by-Step Guide to Knitting Confidence by Jennifer E. Seiffert. I hope to gain a better understanding of my craft and to deepen my connection. I also hope to learn to knit better and eventually, design my own creations!!! A lofty assignment to myself, you say!!?? Join me! I am going to blog my experience as I work through this book! Anyone up for the challenge? Join me!!!
