My knitting so far

#1

I haven’t knitted much but here goes :wink:

My first project was this hat, knitted on Dec 27th 09.
When I casted on for this, I was hoping it would fit my 3 yrs old son, but since I had never knitted before with more then 1 color, and had no idea how to weave the floats, the back of the pattern is sooooo tight that it could fit a Baby Born doll ! LOL :slight_smile:

Then I made this hat from Unspun Icelandic Lopi and it fits me woohoo ;o) Made Dec 29th.

On Dec 30th I made this one, that actually fits my 3 yrs old son hehe :slight_smile: The hearts on the hat didn’t come out very clearly, but I like it and my son loves his hat :slight_smile:
Got the pattern from this page

On Jan 4th I made this one for my 7 yrs old son, using this pattern

Jan 6th I finished this one for my niece, still don’t know how to weave the floats in but it fits a grown up lol :slight_smile:

Then on Jan 9th I casted on for the Potato Chip Scarf and I finished it the next day…not the greatest pic but you get the idea :slight_smile:

Thank you for taking a look at my work :slight_smile:

Very nice!

I only ever used ONE color when I started…for a long time…and still don’t like changing colors, so I admire your first project very much!

Thanks guys :slight_smile:
I’m trying to tell myself that I can knit a sweater for my 3 yrs old son…but I’m afraid to try it.
Anyone know of any easy patterns for a winter sweater ?

Wow, that’s a ton of finished product in a short time! You rock! Thanks for sharing. They are amazing. I waited quite some time to do more than a color or two in any project. I was a big chicken. You’re awesome.

Your work looks great. I love the colorwork :slight_smile: There’s a bunch of nice easy patterns for sweaters. Making baby/child sweaters are the best way to start. Are you on Ravelry? That site is a great source for patterns. You can also get some easy patterns from sites like lionbrand.com or here:
