Sometimes things don't go as planned. Especially when you are beginning a new hobby...like, oh, I don't know...let's say, Knitting, for instance. This is what happens if you cast on 72 stitches (or loops? whatever...) and then run out of yarn. Apparently, the knitting expands in width--to almost double. Well-noted!
But who doesn't like a nice wash-cloth scarf you can where when it's breezy in the tub. You are naked, afterall...gotta warm up somehow!
Happy to report, Washcloth #2 was a success. Size 10 needles, 40 stitches on, and 32 bumpy row thingy's--my sister Lani taught me that technical term. Thanks, Lan.
It's still not very loose looking, and I don't know how I can knit any looser...so I'm guessing my needles are too small? Hmmm.... The cool part is that this one only took two days, and I only knitted when I was driving (well, riding as my HUSBAND drove...I really should clarify), watching movies, or any other time I was just sitting on my duff. Like when I was watching the How to videos about my dear, sweet iMac.... or even while waiting for our table at Carabba's. Knitting really fits in well! AND you get washcloth scarves. How cool is that?
And then of course, more fun on the Photobooth with my buddy, J. Don't we look funky? He's a riot. Having kids to play with is a good thing. =)

Love the "scarf"! It is always good to learn new things even if it is learning what doesn't work. Good luck in the future!
LOL I love your sense of humor about the "scarf" :)
