Odessa.......so purty!



This was what I wanted to make for the Knitting Olympics! I'm so excited that Grumperina got it up at MagKnits so quickly. I'm all over this one. So much so in fact I'm starting one more team.

Who wants to do a KAL with me? I've never knit with beads before and with how busy crazy my life is, this truly will be a challenge for me. So don't give me any crap about it being too easy. M'kay?



Now I'm so excited about the Olympics!

**Edited to add - if you want to join an Odessa KAL go on over here or here!

  • I saw that hat being knit at the party at Claudia's. I think learning a new technique, in this case knitting with beads, is always a challenge. But, from watching Grumperina, it's not too hard, either.

  • I'm not giving you crap, but I promise beads are easy.

    I'll make this eventually, but not just yet.

  • I have an Odessa KAL at my bloggy too, how exciting. It is an awesome hat!

  • Ooh, I like that. And beads are easy to knit with, you just have to string them all on first, and bring them up to the knitting when it's time to add a bead. I'm sure you'll get used to it fairly easily.
