My Very First Knitted Piece – And Why It Still Matters to Me

19/04/2025

I still remember it vividly: my very first knitted piece was... well… far from pretty. 😅
A kind of scarf – crooked, full of holes, and definitely full of "character". But you know what? I loved it.

Back then, I didn't know anything about swatches, edge stitches, or right vs. wrong sides. But I was all in. I sat there for hours, focused, proud of every row – and sometimes frustrated when everything had to be unraveled.

Still, that first piece was more than a learning project. It was my entryway into a new world – a world of creativity, patience, and joy in making.

Today – years later – I still treasure that scarf. Not because it's perfect, but because it's part of my story.


Now it's your turn:
What was your first knitting or crochet project? How did it make you feel? And... do you still have it?
