Knitting Projects

I’m an avid reader and knitter.  I always have a book on my Kindle that I’m reading and I always have a knitting project on my needles.

Here’s a few of the knitting projects I finished.

I really like this Quickie Mesh Cowl and have made three of them so far.

I prefer to knit small, portable projects like scarves, shawls, hats and cowls.  I’m not real good at maintaining the correct gauge so I don’t attempt sweaters or jackets…they have always come out too big or too small…so I stick to items where gauge doesn’t matter much.

I really enjoy using my nickel-plated Interchangeable Circular Knitting Needles from Knit Picks.  They all fit in a small zippered 9” x 7” case.  It holds all my needle tips and connecting cables.  Such a space saver for an RVer.

That’s it for now.  Got to get back to my knitting project.  Remember, you are loved.
