Aw, shoot

!. I missed my blog day at the Wicked Whispers blog this week! Don’t know how that happened, but it did. Bah.

2. I’ve been knitting backwards. I don’t know how this happened either, this is how the knitting book said to do it, but I’ve been knitting in the back loop instead of the appropriate way. Bah.

Still, view my first completed project, traveling scarf:

I’m proud to have followed a pattern successfully, if all in the back loops lol. I love the yarn and the effect of the dropped stitches. You’re thinking: that isn’t complete dude, wtf? Well, this scarf piece is winging its way to Illinois, and from there it will travel the country getting additions and going on a very nice cross-country vacation. By the time it returns it will have been added to by 14 far more experienced knitters, and I will have knit a square on all of their scarves as well. I can’t wait to get my first panel and get working on real knitting, rather than the backward kind.

Well those were my fail moments of the week. Wonder what will happen next week?
