The shawl!

My first time ever knitting a shawl and it's done and came out not too badly! I'm so proud, actually.

Abyssal was recommended to me by a friend, as a good shawl to start with. After I ripped it out (twice) I finally got the hang of the new stitches and the way it worked.

Honestly, it was a good shawl to start with and get me familiar with using a few new stitches and things like stitch markers, and I really like the way it turned out!

Holy shit...

Two knitting projects done today. The second was started today! It just knits up that fast, and I have nothing better to do.

So, I made this hood for my daughter first. Then, my brother, while we were out the other day, found a yarn he liked and wanted to same hood.

He bought me knitting supplies, I made the hat! It's an awesome trade. I'm sad there's not enough for arm warmers in the same colors.

Yes, I'm that awesome.
