My First Double Point Needle Project

My buddy here in Georgia Carolyn is always encouraging me to knit and blog, knit and blog. So this past weekend I went over to her place and we sat and knitted, chatted, watched movies ate and knit, knit, knitted. Carolyn enticed me, no, she told me that it was time for me to try knitting with double points. Our project was Posey by KrisKnits. Would you believe it took me about eight times to get it right. I started over for one reason or the other. I think the yarn was too slippery for my needles. When I left her house, I had only three rows but at least they were staying on. Here is Posey before stuffing. This is all I am doing. The third bulb that goes on top is too small for me. I will have to settle for two poseys instead of three.
