Hello! My First Blog Post!

I have been lurking about on the KnitList and reading other blogs and just had to put in my 2 cents. I've been back to knitting since December, 2004 and am hooked - stick a fork in me, I'm done! I have had such a great time buying yarn - on eBay, at my wonderful favorite LYS in Tampa, at WalMart, actually anywhere I can find yarn. My stash is WAAAAAAYYYYYYY too big, but I have projects planned for all of it. My spare bedroom is totally taken over.

I also have acquired a daunting supply of patterns. It has been an absolutely blast getting free patterns off the web and buying pattern books, knitting books and copying stitches and ideas from others on the list and on their blogs.

I couldn't go on without giving a shout out and a thanks to The Knitting Fiend - what a fabulous blog!!!!! The photos, the knowledge, the ideas, the talent for explaining complicated ideas and directions in a way I can understand - WOW -
all I can say is thanks - I wouldn't miss a day without pulling up your site.

I've just posted on my very first KAL, Chic Knits Ariann. I am loving the pattern, the yarn, and participating in the knitting world I have watched for so long.

So, welcome to my world. I have done a lot of knitting that I am proud of and will post pictures in the future. Come on back!
