Knitting - the first attempt

So today I had a go at knitting. I thought it would be a good first handicraft to have a go at because I did learn to knit sort of as a child, but it just never really stuck with me. I figured I might as well start somewhere reasonably familiar - well it felt like I'd never picked up the needles before! Oh dear.

Knitting first attempt
Okay so it's not that bad really.

But I have a way to go before I can knit some of the wonderful designs I've been seeing around the internet!

All I've done is 6 rows of garter stitch, so I've only used the knit stitch so far. I used the knit cast on which didn't seem too easy, then I rang Mum and she told me how to do it properly so i started again :-)
