THE NEXT STEP

First of all, I wanted to show off my first attempt at knitting. It's only about 5" long and 15 stitches wide. Not bad for my first attempt, I think. The biggest thing was that I learned to cast on, finish off and attempting to purl! I've known the very basics of knitting for years but never did anything with it.


Now comes the back splash. The installer came yesterday. He'll need to come again on Monday to grout the tiles and then another day to seal it. It's ok. I think I made the wrong decision on the accent tiles. I chose the glass and I think I would have like the little black ones instead. Oh well! Maybe when it's really finished we'll like it better. Also, the tumbled stone came in darker than the sample stones.


Thanks for looking!
