Another hobby to add to my growing list of DIY projects. </div><div style="text-align: center;">My good friend Ann Kamps showed my a few of the basics last night during our Knitting 101 Party. So far, I've learned the knit and purl stitches. She also showed me this little technique that incorporates 3 "loops" into the knit stitch to add various textures and patterns. I picked up the basic stitches quite quickly and found myself hesitant to put the needles down. I think I may have a new-found addiction on my hands. Hopefully soon, I'll have some new mittens too.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Next up, I'm going to make a scarf.
