TRIUMPHANT!

Da da da daaaa! I win! lol. I got it all casted off by myself...BOTH SIDES! I rock. SOOOO ready for this...so ready. Smudge was "helping" as you can see...But who can get mad at a face like that?! It's not really anything...just a practice run with some yard I had already been playing with so it was a little pulled apart. I'm very excited to start playing with some other stuff :)

Playing with colors....

I did some of these today, some a few months ago...but I love the effects!



necklace...

Necklace & sunglasses...And eyes...it's a subtle difference, but biggified it's worth it.




I only did her one eye because the other was darker and it looked funny. I like how it turned out though.


LOVED these Lorikeets! Such vibrant colors!
This waterlily isn't finished obviously, but you get the point :)

Ended in disaster!


lol oh well. Like an idiot, I pulled out the leader yarn without doing anything with that end...lol. Tard! Oh well, I know have a handle on it, I think I can do that stitch now...on to another! lol.

Practice....


What is it? I dont' know yet...maybe a bag strap? But mostly it's PRACTICE! I haven't used the long looms before, only the circular ones...and let me tell you...it's a bit challenging at first! lol. This is what I believe is the "circular" stitch, but I'm not sure on that one, you can never accept youtube as absolute fact. But the wonderful thing about knitting? If you don't like it, you can disassemble it in one swift pull!
