(It's my birthday today!!)
Wow. WOW. I'm supposed to write about ONE new skill I'd like to learn? How about several? This is going to take a while :)
Firstly, as previously mentioned, I really need to learn to knit with double pointed needles! It seems everyone and their brother can and that I'm the only one w
ho can't. I have gone as far as casting on and knitting a few rounds on them, but I have failed to practice and develop the skill. It seems that everything I want to knit calls for DPNs, so I really need to bite the bullet and learn already.I also want to learn the Magic Loop Method, just in case the DPN thing doesn't work out. I have heard it is way easier that using DPNs, and I already know how to use circulars, so maybe this would be easier.
I need to learn how to fix mistakes! I usually just frog a few rows and start over, even when it is just a dropped stitch, which I hear is easy to fix. I just don't know what I'm looking at, so I don't know what the mistake is, let alone how to fix it.
I would LOVE to learn to crochet! I basically want to know how to crochet or knit anything I want.. I have a lot to learn :)
It took me forever to learn on DPNs, but once I started I really enjoyed it. However, I do want to learn Magic Loop as well. It's one of my weekend projects eventually.
ReplyDeleteThe learning process is fun, at least for me. I love the satisfaction I get when I finally get the hang of something. Good luck on learning all you want to learn...you can do it! :)
I love that feeling too! Thanks for the encouragement!
