Let the Blogging Begin

I have really enjoyed surfing around and viewing knitting blogs from all over the country. It has really encouraged me to have my own blog where I can share with other knitters my projects. And so we begin!

I have finished my latest project, Conwy from Nancy Bush's Knitting on the Road. The yarn I used was Handpainted Opal in Color #16, purchased from my LYS. This is the 3rd pair of socks I have knit, and was definitely a fun pattern to use. I absolutely loved the yarn, it is amazing how much more you can enjoy a project when you are enchanted by the colors and texture of your yarn!

Besides spending some time knitting this past week, my DH and I went out and purchased an IPods Mini for me...a pink one! My DH has one of the 1st generation IPods, and thought I would really enjoy having one. I have an older MP3 player (an RCA Lyra) from Christmas several years back, and thought it might be nice to upgrade. At first I was doubtful if I would use my Mini very much since I spend most of my waking hours at work and doing the daily routine, but I soon realized how much I had missed listening to music. So, this week I have been spending time ripping favorite CDs to put on the Mini and putting some songs from our computer on there. Knitting has been on the side of things as I have started to enjoy this little gadget. It is sooo cute! I can't wait to get it set up just right :)
