Ask me anything   I gave myself my first needles on my Birthday in February of this year. I decided that I was going to teach myself how to knit. I promised myself that some day I was going to be an “Amazing knitter!” So here I am, far from amazing, obsessively purchasing yarn, teaching myself how to knit, and sharing that journey with you…

    My followers!

    I am so sorry I haven’t been posting much, although I’m sure none of you miss me as much as I miss posting and getting feed back on my knit work!

    Having a 2.5 year old, very spunky little girl and a 3 month old who doesn’t sleep at night kind of exhausts you after a while! All my free time has been spent … well, never mind I don’t really have free time. But soon I will be back, and hopefully I will be able to challenge myself with new knitting patterns!

    Yay!

    For the first time in almost 2 months I picked up a pair of size US10 knitting needles today.

    Hopefully my life will be returning to normal soon!

    Anonymous asked: I'm having issues knitting the boyfriend hat and IDK what is wrong with me D: i know it's just k3 p2/p3k2 ribbing, but for some reason it's not coming out right. i even tried it casting on 10 stitches only, and then doing k3 p2 row one, p3 k2 row 2. i'm getting fabric that has like, one "raised" stitch and 4 stitches that lie flat, instead of the kind of ribbing in the pictures.


    Answer:

    Sorry it has taken me so long to respond…

    Are you sure you cast on the correct number of stitches? It seems like some how you are off by a bit when you flip to the wrong side. 

    When I find my knitted work is not turning out the way the pattern intends, I rip it back and start from the beginning, being sure to double check all of my work. 

    Sometimes I get too excited and mess it up at the start! Knitting is way, way, way too exciting!

    Not knitting…

    I am slowly working on a dress for my daughter. Having a newborn and a 2 year old really cuts into knitting time. I however, have decided to not mind!

    Knitting can wait, newborns are only new for a very short time
