Knitting Frenzy

So I have started teaching myself to knit.I figure a great first project would be a scarf. So I am making scarves for everyone. I started one for my oldest but it was definitely practice and I will be starting his over. It looked wacky. So now I am working on another scarf for my hubby. Simple navy with straight garter stitch. I am using a US 6 needle and really soft navy wool yarn. I started with a cast on of 30. I am still learning all the terms and acronyms/abbreviations. So much to learn!

I started it cause I need to relax! Stress is eating me alive! This move was a huge adjustment for all of us but me sitting here at home was driving me nuts. The boys are doing great in school. My youngest joined the football team at his school and they just finished an undefeated season! The last game was this past Saturday. It was the BEST game of the entire season. Chris really played his heart out and made some good plays. I got a pic of him after the game. So far life in NY has been ok. It is really beautiful here but I wish I had a friend or something to get me out of the house.

SOO I am knitting and getting back to my crafty side. I used to make all kind of crafts and stuff so I am tapping into that. :)

I will be posting more about my crafts and share pics of my projects as I go along. Maybe I can start making things to sell on etsy or something.We shall see. If anyone needs a website or custom graphics, let me know cause I still do that as well. :)
