I only learned 2 years age when i was 48. It all boils down to tension of the thread and practice. We have all been in your shoes, so hand in there. |

i adore bamboo knitting needles and am working on replacing my metal ones (gargesale/thrift store finds). also, i find it easier to knit with short needles, not the long ones intended of afgahn work. for most applications, a short needle is fine and if i need more leanth, i'll go to circs. i find with long needles the ends just get in my way.

Hey Diana, Nice job on your first project. Sounds like you are hooked if you have started the next one and plan on 5 more. Happy Knitting. Way to hang in there and teach yourself.
