I think I can, I think I can....

I CAN knit a pair of socks!!! and will explain this later... lol

I'm sorry it has been so long since I last posted.  I was in the Poconos and my house has no internet or phone... so... unless I wanted to use the Blogger App, I couldn't post anything.  I use the app when I REALLY want to write a post, OR I just want to write, and I had nothing to really write ABOUT so...

I have been Pinterest crazy lately (If you don't follow me already... DO IT!  taxikab87 is the name) and finding the most adorable things for babies (I'm also baby crazy because my sisters baby is coming in less than 2 weeks!  I found this adorable hat

Above is the link to that persons Etsy page.  I really am fascinated by the things people come up with... Kudos Modistebee you have a very adorable baby hat that I am going to try and make myself for my future offspring but will not make it as adorable as you...

This adorable hat was also found on pinterest.  Crocheted but still ADORABLE.  I can't make flowers like those with knitting needles... BUT I WILL TRY!  Or learn more about crocheting... its whatever... My mother has informed me I need to learn to crochet so that I can make all the adorable baby booties we keep finding on Pinterest.  I'm obsessed, its terrible...

ANYWHO!  The Socks.  I have been saying FOREVER that I am going to learn how to make socks!  I have bought books, I have googled, I have tried watching tutorials, and NEVER has I been able to figure it out.  I gave up.  I was on... wait for it... PINTEREST, seriously my obsession is horrible... anyway, I was on Pinterest and I found THIS!


This girl is amazing because she explained every detail to the simplest sock, and made it so easy for me... I haven't tried it yet but I am predicting amazing results and the possibility of me FINIALLY knitting my own socks...  I will be happy with making even ONE sock and when I do it, you will all get a picture of a very happy taxikab with a sock she knit herself.  All for now, will try to update more in time to come.  Almost done fingerless glove TWO of my gloves.... and by almost done I mean I started it...  lol.  I had it REALLY started and tried to change the size because the last one was too small, BUT I tried and then the stitches didn't line up for the cables... so... yea.  We'll see how it goes.  All for now.

Happy Knitting!
Taxikab
