The Yarn Arrived and I am knitting again!


The yarn came from www.knitpicks.com in just a few days and it was so fun to open. The colors jumped out at me, they were just what I was expecting!! These colors are so fresh and alive! The website color swatches were a very close match to the actual colors I saw in my box when it arrived.

I also started to knit my knitting bag. It had to cast on 192 stitches to start. I think this is my biggest project to date. I used my stitch markers after every set of 20 stitches while casting on. Then it was easier to count as I added more and more stitches. Now I just need one at the beginning of the loop.

Now for a bit of time in front of the fireplace knitting before everyone comes home!!
