I never thought I’d ever be capable of knitting anything. Something about the need to control two pointy sticks and a wad of yarn really seemed beyond my coordination level. But behold! Here’s proof that I can at least knit a scarf.
Two of them, in fact.
(The pink and black one looks a bit brighter in the photo than it really is‚Äî I didn’t light the room with anything but my desk lamp when I took this.)
Thank you both! I can’t believe how well the scarves turned out‚Äî in fact, I may start another project tonight with an additional challenge: learn to purl.
Egad!
@Mom – I think I’m pretty far off learning to construct a sweater, but maybe I’ll try after I get some of the knitting gear you’re saving for me. Right now, I’m good with scarves.

I am sooo proud. And you did fringey bits, too! Go forth, young knitter, into the land of sweaters and conquer!
They look fab, much better than my scarves do, this is also the extent of my knitting prowess.
