Adventures In Knitting
Okay, so I've figured out how to cast on, knit, purl, I picked up a dropped stitch once, though I still screwed up a few other times, and I figured out how to cast off last night. I don't understand why what I knit keeps curling at the edges, though. Maybe it's a tension thing that comes with practice?
Still though, I'm going to make a few dishcloths to get some practice in, then I think I'll be ready to make the first project in the Debbie Bliss "How To Knit" book, a garter stitch bag.

Take it easy on the casting off. You'll go blind.
Or grow hair on my palms.
Your knitting looks great and I love your cross stitch!
The stockinette stitch always curls up if done without an edge, so it's not you. You're doing fine.
(KnittingHelp.com is a great resource for knitters. It has videos which, for me, are sooo much easier to learn by than drawings)
Enjoying your blog. : )
