Knitting update

Last night, I finished the first skein of yarn for the bean blanket, which is now 11 inches long. I was overly amibitious when I cast on, so this is one wide blanket. Another beginner mistake I can learn from is that I could be knitting much quicker if I'd chosen a looser gauge. Oh well, the blanket's looking good and I'll certainly remember the work I've put into it.
