My first ever project completed!
I'm so happy and so proud of myself! I finished my first knitting project today! Nothing fancy, just a garter stitch scarf that I started in the knitting class last Sunday but pretty darn good for a first timer I think.

Picture is here if you're interested in peeking.

Gonna start making some neat state "embossed" wash cloths that I saw to learn the knit/purl combo now.

Great job I know it feels rewarding to know you make it. My first scarf took over a year to finish, not complicated just turned warm and I wasn't interested in knitting. Your timeline was much better than mine!!

Congrats! That is a nice scarf. It is such a wonderful feeling when you manage to make something useful out of a ball of yarn and some pointy sticks. Keep up the good work!

Awesome! Congrats on the lovely scarf. Welcome... I'm new to knitting too and everyone here was very lovely and welcoming even when I wanted to pitch my needles in the trash.
