Don't see the point of that "long-tail" cast on!I'm making progress with the knitting and purling, but I can't fix my mistakes. The teacher is getting impatient with me. :-(Tracy F.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03373078078896261229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8883281516588008936.post-45187031450269944512011-03-06T20:29:05.558-05:002011-03-06T20:29:05.558-05:00Curly- okay I could try the crocheting for sure.

One needle might work better for me.<br /><br />JE- actually K was self taught a few years ago...<br /><br />Booknut- I think a trip to Curley's is in order!<br /><br />Bragger- it only posted once.<br /><br />And I did knit your hat but I cheated because I knit it using a loom. I did do it all by myself but I loom knit rather than needle knit.<br /><br />And it strikes me as 'funny' that knitting is something neither one of us can do. Irony...<br /><br />My knitting was so bad it never got further than the picture and i even had to take that out since it was so terrible.Maggiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01283944377017377125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8883281516588008936.post-11225144325114602292011-03-06T19:57:15.879-05:002011-03-06T19:57:15.879-05:00Forgive me if this comment posts twice...I got som...Forgive me if this comment posts twice...I got some kind of wonky error message...<br /><br />I'm confused...I thought you already KNEW how to knit. I thought you knitted (knat?) the lovely yellow hat you sent me.<br /><br />I can't knit either. I finally learned how to cast on (it's ugly) and knit a few stitches (that's uglier), but I cannot for the life of me purl. I think I'll stick to crochet.Braggerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01252719085678735035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8883281516588008936.post-37378931730806164232011-03-06T14:30:38.857-05:002011-03-06T14:30:38.857-05:00I have no desire to learn how to knit, but I would...I have no desire to learn how to knit, but I would LOVE to learn how to crochet!!

Keep trying and I'm sure you'll get it. Bear in mind that K and Curley have probably been knitting and crocheting since birth, or at least since they were old enough to hold needles and hooks without using them as lethal weapons against their siblings.

Knitting is harder than crocheting so if you ever want to try that, give me a call and we'll see if we can get together.Curleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14670892568607136493noreply@blogger.com
