Get your lazy arse (and the rest of you) out of bed before midday and off to the Wool Baa. Stop trying to weasel out of it .

In my opinion I agree with Hecate that a scarf would be a fantastic first project rather than a garment as you could seriously underestimate the time it would take you to make a garment and the challenges involved in it could be very off putting. However, if you're the kind of person that enjoys a challenge then I don't see why you couldn't try a hat.

 

I think a garment may well be too time consuming, but the bear would be a good first project. The benefit of knitting a toy is that it doesn't matter how wonky your sewing up is or if you drop the odd stitch here or there. This thread on another forum was from a guy who was knittng a bear as his first project, so shows that it can be done!

Don't forget the WD40 for the door, it sticks. Don't tell Jill I told you, I want to keep on her good side, she has connections in the yarn trade you know.
