So, I've been a knitter for a while. I got this bee in my head about knitting the baby's christening gown. I found a pattern I really liked and DH liked it, too! I got one ball of the yarn we are probably going to use and I'm going to knit gauge swatch and go from there. This is probably one of the biggest projects I've taken on and I'm so excited!!!

I've only done simple projects and just last year did an elephant (could have come out nicer lol) but I want to try a simple dress for my daughter!
-
@tequiero21: I bet that will be precious!!!
-
I knit! I have so many projects that I need to finish. Seems like I never have time anymore!
-
@LemonLong: that's my prob too! I'm hoping with being pregnant this summer, I'll just want to sit under a fan and knit.
-
@Jennimac: I knit too! I am a beginner still and stick to things that are square or rectangle hehe. I hope to be able take another class soon to learn another project but with work and school I'm not sure when that will be. Keep us posted, we can cheer you on.

cool, what a special gift/memory to have. I can only do basic things like blankets
-
I'm a knitter! I'm currently knitting a baby blanket for my best friend who is pregnant!
-
I'd really like to learn to knit! I can crochet a little but only in straight lines...
-
@Jennimac: I wish I was! I can sew pretty well, but I don't know how to knit! That's definitely something that's on my bucket list to learn though!
You'll have to make sure you post some progress pics, or at least a pic of it when you're finished! -
I am! Hence the username
it would be great to share out projects!

I love to knit! For all you beginners, I basically taught myself via the internet and youtube. I actually prefer the little sweaters and cardigans because it keeps my interest more than knitting blankets. I'm not good at it at all, but I still love it. Seems more productive than surfing the internet 24/7!

I want to learn to knit or crochet. I've tried teaching myself, but I fail miserably. I wonder if there's a place I can go to get a few lessons?
-
@Dandelion: do you have a local yarn store nearby? They often do classes and sometimes a free drop in help hour. Its so much easier to pick up if you have someone to show you techniques.

I love to knit, but never make the time these days. I knit a stuffed bear that I use in LO's monthly photos, and crocheted an elephant for him, both before he was born. I started a furry bunny, but haven't gotten far enough to stick with it and make progress yet.

My husband got me some needles and wool yarn for Christmas so I'm going to start learning. I'd like to make baby a stocking for next year!
