Hey there!
Welcome to the start of my blog. I'm brand new to knitting, and I plan on using this page to catalog my journey and attempts at different crafty knits. I'm not new to crafts by any means--I love sewing, jewelrymaking, and even a bit of painting and repurposing--but knitting was the one thing that always daunted me. Then I figured, "why am I ruining my hands all the time with sharp needles and bits of metal? Why don't I try knitting?"
When I found out my local hospital took donations of hand-knitted baby hats, I figured it would be the perfect way to get into the craft. And it is! The hats are so small, they're the perfect way to try out new stitches, color combinations and patterns. Plus, I won't be piling up useless crafty creations around my home, and I'll be helping out others, too. :)
Since I will be giving nearly all my creations away, I think a blog will be the perfect place to collect memories of them all together, as well as tracking my progress.
In the next few days, I'll probably be tweaking the layout quite a bit. And my first batch of hats are just drying out from their baby-shampoo wash, so I plan on getting pictures of them soon, too!
