I am in the same position as you Lenora, having recently graduated from dishcloths and teacosies to scarves. You should try Lynn's teacosy pattern, it's simple and fun I must knit another one of those actually, I have a new, tiny (one cup) teapot.

I've been wondering what to try next. I can't be doing with complicated patterns, The kind that have lots of different rows that make up the pattern just lose me completely. I lose count altogether, can't tell from the look of the knitting where I am up to, have no real life knitters to help me so end up unpicking it and giving up.

My original plan was to try socks, with the idea of knitting bedsocks for Christmas presents next year, but I am overwhelmed and freaked out by the patterns . Too complicated for words, at least without a real life knitting friend to show me in person

Might have to treat myself to that book! I have bought so many books on the recommendation of my TNH friends (the last one was your organising book, Lenora! I'll let you know how I get on with THAT)
