I think I'm hooked!

My friend Chris Kimmins got me started. (She's a weaver) It's completely 100% her fault. She took me to the Black Purl.  Oh Lordie. Yarn stores are right up there next to fabric stores. Luscious and decadent yarns surrounding you, and if you are not a knitter or crocheter or weaver you really really really want to be one. (I wasn't one when I crossed the threshold) So of course I picked some yarn. Chris said she'd help me get started. Now I can't stop . . .   h   e   l   p  !


Just doing squares - trying out different stitches and needles and hooks. Just playing really.
I was so excited when I saw this yarn. Loved the colors. Then I started this scarf and much to my dismay, it looked like camouflage  - ugh. I wear it any way. It's warm. :-)
