TSNEM January done

So I  have been creative this weekend,  it feels good to start the TSNEM challenge and complete my first project. So my first arm knitted scarf is done it looks good, it certainly took me a lot longer than the you tube video tutorials, they vary between 30 Min's up to 1hour. I took about 2 hours but then I was stopping for cooking and then to go pick up my son from work. Although I found this quite a challenge I'm really pleased I persevered as K is so happy with the scarf. I am in the process of a second scarf as when I was shopping with my husband today he found some great chunky wool in Aldi, which he encouraged me to buy, so I did lol. This wool is black with a strand of grey and brown twisted together so I have mixed it with a ball of black lumio wool I will post pictures of the finished product tomorrow.
Sad times back to work tomorrow.
