I warned my friend Susan that if she got me started knitting, she was opening Pandora’s box because my craft past would come out to haunt me.  Sure enough, I re-learned how to knit and knitted half a scard in two days.  I couldn’t put muy knitting down, but finally had to as I ran out of yarn!

So now that I love knitting again, I have decided that my son’s Chrismas gift will be a full knitted Farmyard set.  More about that later.  I have some friends who want to do it with me, so we will have a little knitting circle.  We aren’t starting until July when Susan’s kitchen project is completed.  So..what to do in the meantime, right?  This scarf will be done soon.  Hmmm..how much trouble could I get myself into?  Lots…..

That’s right – I want to knit that.  My cousin gets married in June out in Colorado and I would love to have it done then.  With all the other projects, it is probably a pipe dream, but then by the autumn hopefully.  I found the yarn and it is pretty much the similar color as the one here.  The gauge is not right, so I am going to try some stuff to compensate for that.  I may have to do a different color, but we will see.  It pains me not to dive right in, but this is a serious project and will cost some money with all that yarn.  So I need to spend some time making sure the setup is correct.  Oh, and the directions are Greek to me.  So we will see…
