My first project! Hooray!

Rust Scarf 6, originally uploaded by limelady722.

The first project I started was a scarf in a simple garter stitch. Dana, Rosie, Tom and I decided Dana would teach us all to knit over winter break last year, so we went to Michael's and picked out yarn and needles. I found this rust-colored thick yarn that looked like an easy one to start with, so I taught myself how to do a long-tail cast-on from knittinghelp.com and Dana taught us how to knit.

I didn't finish the scarf until the start of summer, I'd put it away and hardly worked on it all through spring since the yarn was so hot to work with. I finished it finally after school ended and was pretty happy with the way it turned out : )
