Thank you Happy I was debating whether or not to keep it hehe I'll give it to her though Happy

It is moss stitch, I really like it and it's a really easy sequence to remember. Works with multiples of two stitches
row 1 and 2 knit 1, purl 1 across
row 3 and 4 purl 1, knit 1 across, repeat for however long you wish Happy I got the stitch from about.com knitting section

I never know what the instructions were on about to do anything other than just purl or knit.Got any ideas how you can use beads on stud earring because I bought some earring posts and don't know what to do with them?

Amy- If you go to the projects page, there was a great one posted on how to make a holly broach for christmas, from beads and earring backs!
The difference between purl and knit is that you put the needle through the stitch on different sides, basically. I found about.com's knitting section very helpful, if you need it Happy

Sorry Reneé! We posted the same time lol
Your project sounds cool, I wanted something like that, but the only ones I found were really advanced.
I was looking at a pattern for a knitted hood, it looks so lovely, but the tassles were cabled and I haven't done that yet eeek

Opposites girl: That is so beautiful! My friend is having a baby next year and I am bookmarking every cool kids thing I find!
Where did you buy the kits, may I ask?

Thank you. I got the kit from a Joann Fabric. It was near the quilting cottons on the wall. They have a boy set, girl set, sports, spiderman, and other cute things like that. It comes all wrapped together on an 8x7 rectangle. It was $16 I think.

I've been making my christmas card holder. Took me ages but it looks great. I'm going to make a second one and take pictures of it and make it a project so you'll see it in probably a couple of days.
