My First Knitted Project

Okay, this is for all the GLBT-Knit list people.
One member asked what everyone's first project was. In my attempt to clean out all my childhood memories and random junk, I found not only my first piece of knitting I did when I was five, but also my first project.

It's a small piece of knitting, about 5cm square in a pale pink yarn. I did this when I was five. It was my mum's way to try and stop me from learning to read before I started school. She did this so I would be at the same level as everyone else when I started school. Didn't stop my voracious reading appetite.
You can see where I added a few stitches, and I think I tried turning when I wasn't meant to. But still relatively square shaped.

My first full project, started when I was about 8 and worked on intermittently for the next 4 or so years, was the obligatory scarf. Its about a metre long, and I changed yarns when I ran out of the previous, never at the end of the row. You can see that clearer in the second picture. I've also used different ply yarns. It is honestly the most hideous thing you can imagine, and like most of my projects, its STILL ON THE NEEDLES!!!!
