Just finished my first knitting project :oD

Postby Rox » Thu Dec 09, 2010 5:07 pm

Started this few weeks ago but had to put it down as i needed buttons and kept forgetting to buy them :doh: anyway, finally got some today so i've just finished it off...

Its a mini scarf, my mum's christmas present :knit:

My first go at knitting, its not perfect but after a few rows its been fine and im super happy with it. The button spacing is a little off as i was concentrating more on doing buttonholes than my stitches lol - but i think it looks okay, fine for under a coat! :wine:

Hope she likes it!

It's lovely, much better than my scarf for Moo. How did you find the buttonholes?

Actually quite easy! I loaded up the video on knittinghelp and just stop/started it as it went along - wasnt sure how it was going to work but just followed it and it came out perfectly. My mistake was in working out how many stitches to leave between them hence theyre not perfectly symmetrical lol.
