This week I finished the Valentine's ornaments for J's class:
Learned how to alternate between knitting and purling (this was supposed to come out as a rib knit, but because I'm learning, I accidentally added on a few stitches. This left me with an odd number, which throws off my rows. I'm actually kind of digging the way the stitch is coming out, so I'm going with it.
Also, I broke in my brand new waffle maker this week! I've been dying to get one because all the boys love waffles, and I like the idea of putting healthy ingredients into yummy waffles. I found a basic recipe online that I can keep modifying (switching out whole wheat and flax seed for regular flour, applesauce for oil, adding in pureed fruit, etc.). None of the batches were a bust, but learning how to use the waffle iron was a process. First lesson - DON'T OVERFILL. Drippy waffle batter everywhere.
