Knit one, purl two or something like that

While my mom was here last week she showed me how to knit. So above you see my first official finished knit piece. I know, my ends are still hanging out and its not exactly straight. But I am happy to have finally done something with knit. Thanks mom for showing me how.

Here is the start to another knit item. My mom wrote out a dishcloth pattern for me before she had to leave. I had to start over a couple of times on this one, but I think I have it now. Excpet there is a missed stitch on it allready. Thats ok though.
I am working with Peaches and Cream cotton and size 8 needles

And here we have a crazy looking pile of pouches. Well a few piles. LOL!
Over there in the top corner with the pink one on top is a stack of finished pouches. The others are just waiting for me to sew them.

And the last one is Tomatoe Green Bean Salad by Knittydirtygirl.It is WW wool, and is 220 yards.
I havn't decided what to make with them yet. Any ideas? The only thoughts I have had so far is scarves.

Hannah update- We are getting some rain and wind from her now. But nothing bad. This is just from the outter bands of the storm. She should actully make landfall around midnight tonight.
