Lifes Like That

After months of looking for a pattern for a knitting afghan, a friend of mine was finally able to come up with a book that had some really nice patterns.  It wasn’t excatly like the one I had before, made half the pattern and then lost, but it was suitable for my needs.  I learned to knit years ago, but becuase I couldn’t find a pattern I liked, I have not knit for a couple of years now.  So, I was exptremely disappointed in myself to discover that I couldn’t remember even the basics of knitting. (not the knitting and pearling stitches, thank heavens).

So, I went right on the Internet to find some directions.  I was very happy to have found a forum that answers all the basic questions to do with knitting, and I didn’t even have to make a post to find out all the things I needed to know.  Thank goodness for the Internet or I would be sitting here with another project I could not finish.  So, the GREAT news is that I have started this new pattern, and thanks to the good folks on the internet I may actually be able to finish it (as long as I don’t loose this pattern as well, lol).
