I started knitting a a Modular Scarf


I started knitting a modular scarf. I pruchased the pattern from KnitPicks. The yarn is Artyarns Supermarino. The colors are bold. I just love them. Here is the first module.
The way you knit this is different from anything I have done before. See the ^ shape of the line? Thats how you are knitting. Right now I have t add stiches using Knitted cast on. You then knit half of them, turn and follow the pattern. I'm not sure I can post the pattern here. You can try checking my Ravelry page for the pattern. See ya!
Hi! I finally posted all 5 of my dog's pictures. I hope you find them as adorable as I do. Right now they are all 2 years old. They are just 2 months apart in age. Chico, our first puppy was born 5/1/06. He is definitely the Alpha male. As we added to our family, it was Chico who kept everyone in line. It hurt me to watch Chico teach them as much as it hurt them. After a few weeks of training, Chico was successful. They have all become buddies. When they are not napping they are playing with each other. I can't tell you how funny it is to watch them communicate with each other. It's just amazing how each one is his own doggy personality. They are all in good health. They are a little over weight so I need to get them moving. I'm going to try a start a walking routine once it get a little warmer. I might need to get a Doggy Treadmill. We'll wait and see.

Here I go!

I can't believe I'm doing this. I don't know much about blogging but something tells me to give it a try. I can do anything I put my mind to.

It all started when I was looking on the web for a knit or crochet pattern for Knit Picks 100% Pima Cotton. I purchased a pattern when I brought the cotton but I don't care for it. The pattern is for a Log Cabin Throw. I had no idea that this is a popular throw schmatic. Anyway, I don't enjoy making it so I started my search. During the seach I fould a blog by Kelly Green Rogue. I enjoyed it. She says she can't keep up with the blog which is sad. That's when I deceided to give this blog stuff a try of my own. Here is my attempt to blog. I know I'll get better in time. Have a great day!
