Knitting in the Round!

After learning how to do two-color knitting, I decided to learn how to knit in the round so I can combine the two to make awesome socks (and eventually sweaters!). I finished (half of) my first project: wrist warmers! It turns out knitting in the round is actually super easy and awesome. And even though it's a little too small, I'm still pretty happy with how it turned out:


I think I might just have to give them to someone with smaller wrists if I make the second one. However, I think for now I am going to move on. Next I think I'm going to make myself Jayne's hat (from Firefly). Or perhaps socks. Or a scarf! I saw this scarf on Think Geek, and I think I can just make it for myself, but with a smaller pattern:

Next time: Updates on my quilt! I started the actual quilting process now, so hopefully I'll have it finished before the cold weather really kicks in.
