Learning to knit with double pointed needles has been a challenge for me but I finally got the hang of it and am progressing quite nicely with the pattern I chose. Although it takes me about 15 minutes to make one round, I am learning!
What new skills have you been working on lately? I love learning from other people.
I'm still just working on figuring out my sewing machine. We're at a standstill, as the bobbin thread ran out, and we can't figure out how to get it back in, now that we've rethreaded! I need to find a pictorial step-by-step online! :) After we get that straightened out, we should be good! :)

You are doing well Debbie you could also try knitting them on circular needles I have found that so much better. Love knitting especially in winter ;0)
ReplyDeleteMy daughter loves to knit socks. I have tried knitting socks and after starting over seven times, I finally threw the "things" (double-ended needles) on the floor. The needles are so small and my fingers are too stiff from arthritis to use those needles, but I do so love the sock yarns!!! Good luck and can't wait to see the finished socks.

I have been knitting forever but can't get excited enough to knit socks. There is to many other thing I would rather make. Try knitting them on a circlular neele as Debbie suggests.
ReplyDeleteChuckle! You ask of my new skills ... writing even more checks for all the wonderful things you talented gals make that I can't even create!
ReplyDeleteYour socks are a beautiful shade of red, Deb.
Have a beautiful weekend.
