Knitting Angels

I may have mentioned before on the blog but I think it's worth mentioning again, "I have become a Knitting Angel." The Knitting Angels are the old ladies at church that get together and knit every Tuesday morning. A couple of years ago a friend tried to teach me to knit but it didn't last very long because my friend lived far away and I was never able to ask her questions when I messed up. However, I can see my new angel friends every Tuesday if I want. A couple of months ago, my friend Adrienne and I started going on Tuesday mornings. I reluctantly finished my first knitting project, a scarf, that I had started two years earlier. It's not pretty! I was determined to do something "good" this time around, since I felt more comfortable with the whole process. I got a pattern for a "baby cap" and got some fun colors. My knitting angels and Mark! stood by my side and helped me along the way. Youtube was also a big help when I wanted to learn how to add new colors to my project. Although the project is not completely finished, I couldn't resist taking a picture of my handiwork! I will have to wait until next Tuesday for the angels to help me complete it. I have to "sew" up the back seam and anyone who knows me knows that I don't sew! I do have another pair of needles, so I hope to start another baby hat project. Can't have too many baby hats, right? Although I think the hat will be a little too big for when our little girl first arrives, she will grow into it at some point!
