WiP Wednesday

Last week I said I was going to finish my Christmas project, well that was not in the cards, however, I am still happy with what I accomplish.   I got most of the blocks finish as you can see and now I'm hoping to get the rest of the blocks sewn this weekend and hopefully finish putting the top together.  I will post next week on my progress:





 I' m a newbie when it comes to knitting.  I started knitting just this year,  a co worker of mine volunteer to teach me.  I went and got my yarn and my first pair of needles and the rest is history. 
Julie, my co worker was making a chain scarf for herself .  I asked her if it would be hard to teach me, and she said it is actually a great project for beginners.   I just loved the way mine chain scarf turned out so  I decided to make one for each of my sisters as a Christmas present..

  1. Your blocks looks lovely and vibrant. And congratulations on the knitting. It's addictive. I crochet more now, but I used to be a furious knitter many years ago. I think a knitted scarf is a beautiful and luxurious present - good idea! I especially love that you are making them ahead of time and not leaving your good idea to the last minute which is usually what I do!

    Happy knitting!
