I Needle Little Help Here

Hey all! Happy Thanksgiving. I'm thankful for stuff. I just recently finished this hat! It was pretty quick to make because the yarn is thick and so were the needles. It was made on a circular needle and I didn't use a pattern. I kind of winged the decreasing of the stitches towards the top because I wasn't using a pattern and it turned out ok. It's a little wonky at the top, but not too noticeable. I basically just knit this on the circular needles and tested it on my head to find when I should decrease. At first I made it too big and decided to start over. I started with about 35 stitches on this version. Tomorrow ,as per the true American way, I am going to go black Friday shopping. (Maybe I'll pick up some new yarn even though I don't need it, but would like it.) Today I painted my toenails kind of reddish with sparkles at the top. Isn't that fun and interesting? (Picture not included) I also made mashed potatoes today for my family! It was fun to learn how to make them because I like them a lot. Peace out! Bye.
I blinked


Whoops it slipped
ps.Wasn't that knitting pun as a title so darn hilarious? I know.

I Kind Of Normally Smile

Haha I don't feel like doing homework right now, even though I definitely should be doing it. Look it's me and I'm smiling like one of those people who smile in pictures that they put in their blog. I made this hat using a circular needle and this awesome yarn my sister got me this summer. There are some mistakes, but it's really comfortable and fits my head. It's been a while since I did the ribbing pattern so it was hard at first to get back into the swing of things. But it didn't really take that long so that's good. Goodness gracious I need to get back to my homework.

I Am Over The Moon

I put a moon on the scarf thing. It's kind of a small scarf, so it's it's kind of more of a cowl. I worked on this moon while watching The Great British Baking Show. It's such a cute show. My favorite is Martha. She's 17 like me. Whoo. Happy yesterday birthday. The moon looks better in person then on the camera, because the camera flipped the moon as one does. Doesn't it look like the night sky? NIGHT SKY NIGHT SKY! 
This was my present to my sister and the finger hat was the present to my other sister. 



Teenager Shows How Cool She Is

Hey folks!
I've been working on a many knitting projects. Below is the full completed version of the skirt. Hooray. So amazing. In the picture it looks amazing, but the waistband is a tad too big even though I fixed it up by cutting it and resewing it. I think it looks pretty cool. I like the color scheme. I am working on a scarf right now and I also just finished a teenage angst hat. I did the hat on a loom and then used white yarn and a tapestry needle to embroider the hand. Wow. In knitting club people are knitting a square which we will combine into a blanket and give to a domestic abuse shelter. I'm so excited for its completion! I've been trying to knit every night or so while listening to some podcasts or stand-up comedians on Pandora. I would like to recommend Margaret Cho and Cameron Esposito as great stand-up comedians. Also Stuff Mom Never Told You is a great podcast.
So fashion. Fashion icon.
Amazingly crooked

Teen angst
Wow i'm so cool.
