i am knitting a skirt! whee! i had yellow and orange variegated yarn that was sitting around doing nothing, so skirt it is.

and about 2.5 months ago, i knitted myself a luggy bonnet (see website at bottom for what it is) with stars. even though it was though it was the middle of march and not knit hat weather anymore, i had a pattern for it in a book and i was bored. and i wanted to knit something that wasn't a scarf. i love that hat. to bad it's so freaking hot now i can't wear it.

ElRodente:
i want to knit a hat like red's :(

Lise:
I got into knitting as a sort of stress reliever, though all it really made me do was curse whenever I screwed up a stitch and develop a permanent squint in my eyes.

I actually haven't picked up my yarn and needles in over half a year. Perhaps I should start up again. I made a few scarves for friends, and somehow, SOMEHOW, managed to complete a hat.

They're still nothing compared to Kathy Bateman's hats http://www.platypusdreams.com/. I'd like to learn how to knit using circular needles or knitting in the round. http://www.knittinghelp.com was my life.

Good luck to fellow knitters!

I can send you th patten link, if you'd like? It's actually really easy, you only have to know the basic knit stitch.

I haven't knitted anything in months.  The last thing I knitted was a hat for my nephew.  WAAAAAY too big for a 1 year old.  perhaps this winter it will fit...

I loooved the Icelandic wool.  the fibers are longer so it doesn't pill as much.

I have a terrible habit of useing the wrong size needles.  The scarf I made for myself I call the denser genser, because I don't need to wear a sweater with it.  It called for 6mm needles, and I used 3.5mm... it stopps the wind. and small arms.
