Here We Go

Well, I decided to give this blogging a shot. I figured I could write about what I have been doing. I love knitting, dollmaking, sewing, bead embroidery, and jewelry making. Right now I am working on a Knitting project that has really been a challenge for me. It is called Entrelac Scarf by Lucy Neatby. The yarn I am working with is Karaoke by SWTC. It is 50% soysilk ad 50% wool. I like it. The pattern is like squares that are knitted together. The squares are knitted in one continuous pattern. I will have to take a picture of it. It is really hard to explain. This year I have decided to be a Fearless Knitter, Fearless Doll Artist, and a Fearless Jewelry maker. So I am going to move out of my comfort zone. So many times I have stopped myself from making a doll because I was afraid I would fail. Now that I am older, what the heck! Who is to say what is a mistake? I think I also need to be a Fearless Blogger!

WOW!!!!! That is one beautiful scarf!!! I sure wish I had one!! :) :) I wish I could make one like that. Whenever I try knitting with 2 needles I end up having to redo half of what I do. i can't imagine using 4 needles.

Beautiful colors. Can't wait to see your scarf finished. I crochet but haven't tried knitting yet. Maybe one of these days. I'll put it on my list of things to try. :-) Love the colors.
