I'm back!

I've been in a funk for the last month! However, I'm back and will continue to blog.

I got the knitting love back! Last year, I started a booga bag and never finished it. A couple of weeks ago, I broke the strap on my purse. Now, the nearest Walmart is at least 30 minutes away and I really didn't want to spend the money. So, I pulled out the booga bag and finished it. After that, I've wanted to knit more. I'm still crocheting but I've added some knitting projects too.

I have tried totally giving up crochet before in favor of knitting and I've tried giving up knitting in favor of crochet. I finally came to the conclusion that I can do both. I love stockingette stitch and how drapable it is. I'm currently knitting myself a sweater and have plans for more sweaters and more booga bags. I'm also going to start knitting socks. I've ordered 2 sets of size 1 circulars from Knitpicks and can't wait to get started.

Here are some pictures of my sweater:

I'm also crocheting a baby blanket:
