New Stitch

I spent a considerable amount of time yesterday learning a new stitch with the knitting in order to give myself a challenge and it certainly was that.  I'd been trying to get started all week and thought I would do another bookmark to make sure I could get the stitch before I tried any bigger projects with it.  The stitch I have done so far leaves a squiggly line pattern and the new one should leave more of a pointy zigzag pattern (yes, that's about as technical as my knitting vocabulary gets people).  



As you can see, the zigzag didn't quite come out but I was pleased with the overall effect (if you overlook the two gaping holes I managed to get in there - oops) so I'm going to start my new project soon.  I'll be waiting until after this week's visitors have left though as I don't want Lucas' first words to be one of those that turned the air blue around here yesterday.
