learning to knit

so im off work on sick leave for two glorious weeks so i have decided to start knitting. so far it is not nearly as fun as crochet but hopfully when i get better at it i'll enjoy it more.
my first project is as simple as it can get. a baby hat for grace, basically knit a rectangle, fold it over, sew the sides and stick it on her head. im making it in a very attractive bright red colour that im sure she will love /sarcasm.
i ordered stich n bitch online as well to i can make lots of brilliant knitting projects but yet again things arent going my way. saw a pattern for mittens which i figured would be awesome and simple and i have the perfect yarn in my stash for them but guess what, i need 4 double pointed needles to make them and the info on how to knit with four double pointed needles is vauge as hell. its obviously not gonna stop me but i doubt ill get them done this week.

things to do:
finish ugly hat for grace
make other baby booty
FINISH SLEEVE FOR ELEANORS JUMPER BEFORE SHE GROWS OUT OF IT!!!
