New Challenges

Without being able to do any form of running, walking or cycling, I've turn my attention to knitting a cable beanie on circular needles. It's been challenging to say the least as I've neither knitted cable before nor knitted on circular needles!

It has taken 6 attempts to start the beanie. Most of these have been related to adjusting the amount of stitches to the weight of wool I am using which is bigger than the one on the pattern. Then when I finally got the number of stitches right, I mucked up my first row of cabling so badly I had to start again!

It certainly does require a bit of concentration. It's looking fairly good and I'm about halfway through.
