I attempted to knit a newborn hat but it didn't work so well, it included a knit purl sequence which was too hard for me on my brand new size 6 long needles. (Thanks MOM). The yarn was skinny as well as needles. Im using bernat cotton which seems smaller than worsted weight to make a dishcloth with 5 or 6 knit rows and one purl row. we'll see how it turns out.

Knitting! and a completed project
I learned to knit and currently am knitting a dishcloth. I have no idea where this will take me. Here's the start.
Here's a picture of two baby blankets I made by sewing and quilting.
Here is my knit project: a washcloth
I am working on hats for homeless men and a hat for my mom. Then I don't know what project is next.
Oh, here's the finished blanket with edging for Jedrick. All I need to do is weave in the ends and I can deliver it.

proof!
Today I have to go find "soft white" red heart yarn. I can't seem to get away from red heart. I kinda like it and the color selection. Can't beat the price and wear either. I just wish it was more soft.
