    Default Finished my first knitting project~

    I have crocheted for a long time but have wanted to learn to knit. I finally learned and finished my first project. Here are some shorts I made for my ds.



    I hope to make some Christmas presents.

    That's your first knitting project? You did a wonderful job! The stitches are even and it looks well proportioned. Looks like you have been knitting for a long time. Good job!

    Wow! I am impressed that this is your first project. Maybe it is time for me to start my first project. My hobby is quilting but I need a carry with me project to do while waiting in cars.
