The Musings of the Absolutely Fabulous Ms. N.

I took the plunge on Saturday and bought some knitting needles and some yarn from AC Moore. Oh, and a "Learn to Knit" book too. I have wanted to learn for a while but I haven't had the motivation. I used to crochet when I was little, with my mom. But when she died I never picked it up again. I need a hobby to keep me busy. Though my social calendar has been filling up lately which is kinda nice. :)

While surfing the net last week I came upon this cool knitting site. It's super helpful in that the author has made little videos that you can follow along and knit along with her. I learn to cast-on this way. I was trying to follow the way that the book was showing me but it was too hard. I think that I am going to make a few potholders and see how the whole thing goes. Watch out! You may be receiving a scarf as a gift from me next year!
