Finally, I finished my first scarf yesterday!!!!!  I completed all the actual knitting on Monday, sewed in the loose strings on Tuesday, and added the fringes on Wednesday!!!

Voila (!) .  .  .  .  .

Measuring in at just over  5 feet long, this took me two weeks to finish while working on it only when I had the time.  Here’s another look at it folded up .  .  .

I feel so accomplished!!!  I’ve already started on my next scarf.  It’s a small one for the daughter of a friend of mine.   After that, I’ll do a couple more scarves, maybe a pair of socks, and somehow, a brand new throw for my bed.  Yup, there’s no denying it.  I am now a knitter.  God help us all!!

I also wanted to make a little announcement that I have another show now lined up on May 1st back here in the Nashville area.  It will be at a venue called Richard’s Cafe in Whites Creek, TN.  It is just a few minutes north of downtown Nashville, and I’ll be doing a full hour’s set.  I’ve been graciously given the early show at 6 PM for their Friday night dinner crowd.  This is my first show at this long-standing venue, and I’m really looking forward to playing there. 

This is it for now.  More to come (and more knitting to come) SOON!!!!

    Good job. It looks store-bought! hehehe
    As for the garage, the geniuses who designed the house, made the garage large enough to fit a small car and nothing else. If Danny were to park the white car in there, he would have to install a moon roof to crawl out of, or maybe just sleep in the car til he leaves again. Seriously. It’s small.
