Oh the Possiblities

I've think i may have broken the beginner barrier in knitting. This is a big day for me. i am just over the moon. Last night i started working on the last step of my string market bag - the kitchener stitch. I've been dreading it since i started. I needed to learn it to graft the handle of my bag together. I only had 6 stitches to graft so that made it easier. My first attempt looks good. One side is a bit loose but totally acceptable. It was very late so i decided to wait and do the second handle today.

I really think i could manage a sweater at this point. The only problem is i have about a bazillion projects to do first ;)

Woot!

I am intimidated by the Kitchener stitch, too. :)
