Hi, my name is Jasmyn, and I am a Canadian undergraduate student in my freshman year who loves to knit! I have been knitting since I was approximately seven years old, and recently have started to pursue an interest in creating and publishing patterns.
Although a large part of my blog is devoted to knitting, please don't be surprised by any other topic that manages to find its way in here! In addition to knitting, I also enjoy photography (though I'm not very good!), reading, camping, and rock climbing.
I finally took pictures of my handspun convertible mittens.
What is currently on your needles?
Well, right now I have two projects on the go, actually. The first is a test knit of a baby tunic that I’m working on, but it’s not actually on my needles, as I’m just finishing it now. The second is the second mitten of a mitten pattern that I’m designing, and hope to be done soon!
I will post photos of the test knit as soon as I’m finished. Promise!
Ok, so apparently I’m not so great at remembering to do this everyday. So, I will try my best, but no promises!
Today’s question is, do I have any other works in progress?
I kind of addressed this yesterday, my bad. I am currently working on finishing both my baby tunic test knit, as well as the second mitten of a pattern I am having tested. Pictures will follow as I finish them!
How long did it take from the time you learned how to knit to finish your first project?
As I have previously mentioned, my first project was that ragged-looking grey and red scarf I’ve posted pictured of. It probably took me about a year to really finish, and even then it is very short and not my greatest work.
In other news, since I haven’t posted in a little while (I need to work on that!) this weekend I’m excited to be participating in the JDRF Walk for Diabetes! I will be sure to post photos of the walk, so long as it doesn’t rain the entire time (as it is supposed to). For those of you who are new to my blog, a little while ago I published a pattern to support this organization, which can be found on my Patterns page. For any of you who have donated money, either for using my pattern or for your any other reason, thank you very much for your support!
