Since my last post, I've finished the fingerless mitts I had started and also a hat. I'm well on my way to finishing a second hat that has knit up fabulously. It's amazing how checking your gauge improves the outcome of your knitting!
So for all of you wanna-be-knitters out there: If I can do it, so can you! It's really just a matter of patience and practice. Check out Knitting Help dot com.. they have great, short videos that show you all the techniques up close.
Here are some pics of my progress:

Hat with cable and lace pattern - I checked my gauge very carefully for this hat and it's knitting up to the perfect size for little old me!
Happy knitting!
