Ok, so many of you know that I have a love of sewing. Well, a girl at work introduced me to knitting. Yes, I said knitting. However, it is not the traditional knitting one thinks of. I don't look like a grandma with her glasses on her nose, hair in a bun, with needles clacking while rocking in a rocking chair. I am doing what I like to call FAUX knitting. I use a loom and hook instead of knitting needles. At first, it looks super hard, but in reality, it's super easy! I love it! It keeps my hands busy and I need that sometimes! Let me show you what I'm working with...
Now let me show you what half of the blanket looks like...
I have been working on this for what feels like forever. (In reality, it was about a week's worth of work.) I finally finished it yesterday. Here is the finished product.
I can't wait to start my next one! I already know what colors it will be!!

I love it, Sis! It's so cute! Are you gonna give it to the baby at work? You know you have to show me how to do that, right?
How cute! I love it!!
Well aren't you just a talented little thing Laura! :) Beautiful job...I'm impressed!
Good job Laura! This DOES look hard! I've never seen anyone knit like with the things you used. I bet it was fun! Your finished product is so cute!
Oh, I really wish I could do neat "old lady" stuff like this!! I got a sewing machine a few years ago, so until I tackle that then I'll consider doing something like this. Your projects look great so far!
I love it! Always trying new things. That's what life is about. Trying to fit as much stuff in as possible!
