A Humble Photo of a Proud Knitting Accomplishment [#BlogChallenge Day 15]

Today's prompt is: Post a photo I've taken that I'm proud of.

Goodness, isn't that what I do all the time? I am unjustifiable proud of my photography since its my camera (point and shoot, no less) that's doing all the work. I highly recommend the Canon Powershot A590IS (there are newer models out). Moving children are not its forte, but its great for still life!

So I'll change things up a bit--no flowers! I'm proud of this humble picture because this is the bootie that taught me how to knit. I knew Caleb needed something to keep his feet warm and I thought this pattern was so cute. It was way beyond me though, so I watched youtube and knittinghelp.com videos over and over again. I pursued this project obsessively and ended up with two slightly-imperfect but workable booties that I was very proud of.

  1. I have a DLSR (it's actually Hubby's), but I started with a Canon Powershot! They take *great* photos - I love all of the different setting!
