It's A Hat!

Well, almost a hat...

Slouchy hat, my design, in the works.

This month has been devoted to
knitting and crocheting
hats and beanies.

Mostly relearning how to knit and crochet.
The last time I did any needle work
was in the 80's.

So, my skills are rusty
and I'm having to decipher
all the 
abbreviations.

The really good patterns 
have a page devoted to translations. 

I need to look up things like 
psso and then look up
how to do it.

So,
basically since I dislike directions 
I just started knitting.

Much easier on my nerves.
So, much more relaxing.

The best thing for me about 
knitting and crocheting 
is 
if things go wrong
all I have to do is 
unravel the yarn,
wind it up and start again!

Life should be so forgiving.

Nothing is better than handmade, even if it isn't perfect. That is what makes it special;=)
