This is what I used:
In Walnut
and
Strawberry
This is what I made :)
I call it a lap blanket because it is the size of my lap :P
I also call it a shawl and scarf. Although it's a small scarf... it still works. Needless to say, I was happy when I finished it. I think that I am going to give it to my Mom for Christmas. To this very day, I still sleep with the two blankets that she crocheted for me when I was a baby. So, it's important to me to give her the very first thing I ever knitted and completed. I hope she likes it!
So... I bid on some Lion Brand knitting needles on eBay.... I won them! They are brand new and here is the reason why I am soooooo excited... they cost me $8.99 (plus shipping) for 5 pair! They are BRAND NEW!
AWESOME!!!
Nearly $50.00 worth of needles for $8.99!
I don't think I'll get my Vickie Howell yarn : ( BOOOOO! For a straight week... I would open the mailbox... nothing : ( I've lost hope.
