I promise this blog isn't going to turn into a kindergarten "My First..." series :)
That said, here's my first knitting project. Yeah, I'm a crappy photographer but try to ignore that for a second. This was a good first project because it let me try a bunch of different types of patterns, which is probably why they named it the Sampler Scarf. I did have to frog (i.e. rip apart--rip it, rip it, get it? :)) a few times because I'm still learning, but learning how to frog knitting was actually a lesson in itself. Like everything else with knitting, it's harder to do than in crochet. I can see now why my friend Sabrina says crocheting produces faster results. So if crochet is easier and faster, why am I pursuing knitting? Because it's fun to learn something new and knitting also produces a cleaner and different look than crochet. Plus I just want to be able to say I know how to do it :)

Lookin' good to me...I still don't think I could do this myself.
That's very nice! You'll get the hang of it more. And you're right, frogging is a learning process too. Helps you figure out the different stitches and what they look like.
