In the front door, around the back, peek through the window, and off jumps Jack!

I started knitting today.  Crazy I know.  Actually it is more ironic.  My mom had me take knitting classes one summer.  I think I was probably late elementary or early middle school aged.  I didn't like it so much then...but now I am having so much fun.  It all started on Sunday when we were in the Charlottesville downtown mall and saw a shop called the Needle Lady.  There was the most beautiful scarf/shawl in the window.  I went today and started.  Not the scarf I saw in the window but a starter scarf.  It is purple.  The lady running the shop said that the scarf I want to make should be more like a 3rd project because the yarn is so expensive.  By the 3rd project I will be better!

It is so calming.  And the great part is I will actually get to wear the things I make because it gets colder here than in Texas. 

I am still waiting for furniture.  At least now I can knit while I wait!
