This is new yarn i bought when i got some pocket change all to my self muhahaha if yet to really do anything with the pink yarn yet other that a hat and stress yarn but im getting to it the blue yarn i used in my fist poncho seen in the works here.

the red yarn i used for the poncho also made two scarfs and i still have tons of it.
one of the scarfs was a drop stitch scarf for a spanish student and the other one was a scarf with all the stitches i new in it hence i gave it the name techie.

Yarn ranT

I've realized that its hard to be a teen that knits
because either your friends are into it or not and if not it really really hard to get a stitch N bitch going especially when your at school. has anyone else found that either its older people who get together in knitting groups or college students/ or am i like the only one who's having a hard time fitting in

welcome to my insane-knitty!

Welcome to my knitting blog
Threads on a Stick
This is my first ever blog so be nice ok?
i intend to post my wip(s) (work in progresses)
and random things about my life long with them.
i love to knit i started to teach myself over the march break
and i haven't stopped since then.

this is my first scarf
Its made out of one 50g ball of 100% polyester blend
by Crafts Knitting Yarn
It didn't turn out the way i thought it would because it was chunky yarn and i made the mistake of knitting it on too small a needle, hence it a very tight weave and it only coves your neak lol
This is my second scarf its also my favorite
done in a classic drop sticks its loose and lovely
and not to menchan long! it made out a 100g ball of rowan yarn
and it look awesome with my favorite top <3
