knitting!

I took a break from knitting for about a week to figure out what I was going to do next…I get nervous trying new things as I tend to be a bit of a perfectionist but finally decided to suck it up and make a ball following a pattern in the book that Adam gave me for Christmas. Despite the fact that it took lots more than 2 needles,it went really well and I was happy enough with the results that I decided to make another one! I stuffed the first one fairly full and will do the same to the second and the kids will use them as basketballs for Nick’s basketball hoop downstairs. It’s a perfect size! I also think they’d make great baby toys,although when I do another one,I’d certainly use more than 1 color. These ones I was just using up yarn that I already had.
