Newbe Knitter

I'm a newbe knitter but I love it, it's very relaxing and I like that it is so easy to work on anywhere. Plus you get to see immediate results from your efforts. I have worked on several scarves and several squares for the knit a square program.
If your a beginner like me and your looking for a charity to knit for check out it's great to help you perfect your gauge. You knit 8"x8" squares that are then made into quilts to help keep abandoned children and AIDS orphans of southern Africa warm.

Another thing about being a newbie knitter is that I have found it to be contagious...I was unsure of talking to my non-knitter friends about it since I didn't feel like getting hassled about it, but then it turns out that they had always wanted to learn too! Next thing you know I have 4 of my friends learning to knit too!!! So this Saturday I am hosting my first knitting party! I'm very excited!
