my first hat



my first three-week knitting class has ended, and one month later i've finally finished the project! hopefully all my other projects won't take as long! to many a random person, as well as to some friends, i say thank you. many folks helped me finish, including an extra session of time with my teacher. my fears of having a difficult time learning something new definitely came true. but i press on! i think i'll try a scarf next, with the yarn i bought the day of the sheep shearing. it's a beautiful purple color and i think i'll at least not need it for awhile.

thanks to noah, the model extraordinaire! and a shout out to my dear friend clare who helped me get started.

oh and one more funny thing, or maybe not-so-funny, the hat was supposed to fit me, but i messed up my measurements and it only fits a kid. aye! oh well, there are always other hats to knit!
