After multiple practice sessions (yellow and white swatches), my first cable project is underway. Based on the Johnny pattern by Quince & Co, my husband requested the addition of a vintage Celtic cable motif.
Happiness 🤗 🧶!

Somewhat misshapen knitted dish cloth in blue and white yarn plus bamboo knitting needles
First knit project is imperfect but complete. Will be my misshapen first!😁 Color is different to Tunisian crochet version I did last year. #learningtoknit #knitting #tunisiancrochet
Socks are done! I'm already planning the next pair as well as a pair for my sis, but first I'm gonna enjoy these and finish off a crochet project that's been vexing me since last year. Get 'er done. 😁 #LearningToKnit #KnitSocks
My first attempt at making socks. Three needles sit with a yellow 1/2” wide cuff and a pair of sewing scissors on a desk.
I’m learning/teaching myself to knit socks. My ultimate goal? Christmas socks, like my mom used to do so I can take up the mantle for all her great grands. ❤️ We miss her so.

I took a break from yarn for a bit but now am back working on this sweater vest. The process is going much smoother than the dozen starts it took to get to this point. #beginningknitter #learningtoknit
Finished with the cable sample and this is my last knit square for a while. I am almost out of all the cotton yarn I have and I need to get started on the wool sweater vest I bought yarn for last year. 😁 #learningtoknit #beginningknitter
Finished that diamond pattern and have moved on to my first traditional cable. I'm running out of this soft cotton yarn, so that last one got finished with scraps. 😁. These are probably going to get used in a funky sweater vest, so I'm not too worried about mistakes, off color mixes. #learningtoknit
Purple, orange, and pink yarn has been knit into the top half of a sock, on circular knitting needles
Knitting my first sock and its going well enough i might have two socks by the end of this. #knitting #socks #learningtoknit
Oh the sweet relief of an easier pattern before jumping into my first pattern using cable needles.
This one is so easy to "read" based on which side you are working. I'm actually enjoying the knit. #beginningknitter #learningtoknit

I watched some videos, thought I discovered a hack, learned about twisted stitches, and maybe I’m starting to get the hang of it. I get why it can be addicting in a way crochet is not… plus the needles look like wands. #knitting #newknitter #hobby #learningtoknit
My knitting supplies came in the mail today! So excited to learn more knitting techniques. #knittingmail #bambooneedles #learningtoknit
On my second skein of yarn, scarf comes up to my thighs now. Should be done once I'm done with this skien. #knitting #scarfknitting #halfwaydone #learningtoknit
