My mom likes to call me her 'little spider', because she says that every time she turns around I'm just knitting. That might be true. When I was at home this January, she asked me to make her something. Guatemala City is not a place where you can a lot of knitted things, so I decided to make her my first lace scarf. It didn't come out perfect, but I am proud of having done that project. Just like with the shawl I'm making now, I have to learn to be more careful when counting stitches, and have to just learn to rip out what doesn't come out right instead of just 'knitting through'. It really messes with the pattern. Any way... here are two pictures. One of my mom wearing the scarf and a close up of my mistakes, so that I remember not to make them anymore! :)
