Finished Knitted Dishcloth

The dishcloth is complete!

I finished casting off.  Flattened it.  And laughed!

I knew it wasn't going to be perfect (yes, I controlled the impulse to pull it out and start over...several times) but continued on any.  

The finished product is...less then desirable.  But hey, I actually finished a knitting project!  


I haven't done much sewing lately.

My sisters and I each go and help my mom a couple days a week.  Between that, appointments, Scout Day Camp, and trying (and usually failing) to keep my own house in order, I haven't found much time for sewing.

I do, however, have these triangles sitting on my design wall, waiting to be finished.


Hopefully I will get to them this weekend.

Happy Friday Everyone!!

WIP knitting

I'm new to knitting (so don't look too closely!) but I thoroughly enjoy it!  I have started several projects (scarves, dishclothes, hats) but most of them get pulled out by my little ones...stinkers.  That's okay.  I'm a bit of a perfectionist so I probably would have pulled most of them out anyway.  :)

This particular beauty is ending up as a dishcloth.  A small simple project that I can finish quickly...instant gratification.  I need that sometimes.  Anyone else?


I chose pink for not other reason then it was the first ball of yard I grabbed from the pile, but I quite like it!  

Anyone have any ideas for other simple (instant gratification not required) knitting projects?
