[KnitKnacker1234]

I did it I did it! In the photo my first successful square is being blocked so it is currently wet. I had so much trouble getting this far but I am so glad I stuck with it. You guys rock! Your advice and encouragement help me immensely and you have no idea how much I appreciate it.
1 down 7 to go!
I am not worried that I will fall behind, I knew I would going into this.
In case you are wondering the colours are TC:
Antique
Gypsy Gold

Oh! I love those 2 colors together! Absolutely beautiful!!

Hello everyone,
How are your fingers holding up? I am steady working. Everyone is getting so much accomplished so quickly. Great Job on all the pretty squares that have been posted so far. I am a newbie and have a long way to go only have about 3 squares done so far. I live in VA and it is snowing so since tomorrow is a snow day I am going to push to catch up. Thanks to all for the great postings and the tutorial info at the forum. It really helps a new knitter like me.

Hi! My fingers get tired at times. lol. Knitting up a storm! I've only gotten 2 squares done that I can keep. Had to rip apart one that ended up too big and one that was too small. So... I wish we were getting snow!! I love it!! Lucky you!

I am half done with my third block, but even though my swatch came out good, my first block was one inch small, so I have gone up one needle, and was wondering if I could frog just my second color, and add some rows in the first color, and add the second on again. I hate to frog the whole block, but need to make it bigger.

Just finished all the squares for clue #1. Here is a pic showing my colours. Can't wait to add more colours and see what they all look like when knit together. Bring on clue #2!

Gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous colours! What are the other two? Are you a speed knitter? I'm still plugging away and start square 6 tomorrow. Can't wait to do a different pattern though, as the continuous Knit stitch is getting to me. I caught myself a couple of times wanting to purl back on the return row out of habit.

Thanks,
The other colours are Cadet (blue) and Butter (yellow).
I don't know if I'm a speed knitter or not, but I've been knitting for almost 25 years (since I was 6). And I just knit all the time. Right now I'm working on the KAL, plus another afghan, as well as socks and mittens. I know, I'm crazy!

Two of my squares. Already completed 6 so I only have 2 more!

I really like these colours together! You're almost there!

Thanks. I spent all day Saturday working on these squares. It helps that my wife is trying to finish a baby blanket for a friend of hers, who is going to be adopting a baby any day now.

I am relatively new to knitting, I have only made 2 scarves and a pair of glovelets. Does anyone know if there is a way to save these videos to your computers? I am worried the videos will be taken down before I even have a chance to get started. With working full time and in college for my bachelor's degree I haven't even started yet

Done five squares. Taking a break at Chuck E. Cheese's with my soon-to-be 8 year old son!

Yeah --- knitting my final block for this clue! I am also knitting two sweater vests that I want to give as gifts for Easter, and hope to be able to keep up with the mystery clues and the sweater knitting!

I have debated whether to post my picture or not; I am not using Bernat yarn, and feel slightly guilty .
In my defense, , I purchase most all of my yarn from a local yarn shop. I have highly sensitive skin and have learned that I need to handle yarn before I knit with it. The town close to where I live has a small JoAnn's store with very little yarn, and ordering online has ended up with most all the yarn never being used and remaining in the box in which it was shipped..... so, I am using Mission Falls 1824 Cotton.

I have really enjoyed this first clue --- once I figured out how to make 1 stitch into 3 stitches it was wonderful "tv" knitting....... I am really excited for the next clue! The forums for this KAL have been great --- I love to read what you all post.

Hope you all have a great afternoon!
