Hi! I just learnt how to knit a couple months ago, when I started to attend a meetup group with my mom. I learned to crochet in school, but I always failed to learn knitting, maybe because I’m left handed?. But something clicked now that I’m an adult and I’m hooked. I’m mostly taking on smaller projects like hats and mittens, these are the first I made to give away to a friend for her little girl (3yo) but they ended up being too small lol.

Used free patterns found online, the mittens were done with crochet. I don’t know what else to put in here 😅 So feel free to ask if I’m missing some important info here, please.

Edit: Thank you everyone for your kind words, I look forward to keep sharing my projects in such an encouraging and lovely community 💕

    Linen stitch looks cute, I’ll have to give it a try some time. Also seems it’d be good for combining two colors of yarn: one variegated and one solid. That’d be too advanced for me now, but I’ll certainly keep this in mind for a future project, thanks! :)

      A solid + variegated mix for linen stitch would be really lovely. I think I’ve seen this done with a solid black and a very colorful variegated yarn and it gave almost a stained glass effect.

      And do what you’re comfortable with, but I’d say if you’re doing cables you’re more advanced than you think :).
