Hello~ The other day I was thinking what will I do after my work is done, and I was thinking a blanket or something... But I don't know what can you do besides scarf and blanket for the needles, and may I ask how much did you spent your yarn for the blanket?
The yrn I got for cheap. Hobby Lobby around here sells 3-packs of 500-ish yard Sugar and Creme yarn for about $12 with the 40% coupon you can print off their website. If you don't have a Hobby Lobby or a store that sells the 3-pack of the cotton yarn...a blanket can be very expensive if you want to use something outside of cheap acrylic yarn. For beginning projects you can make with squares/rectangles lots of things: rugs, bags, scarves, potholders, patchwork blankets, cozies, and other things. Let your imagination run wild!

Thanks. Yesterday I got taught in tight situation. I was going to change the color in my scarf because I want to write letters, but found out that when you want to change it back it's impossible (because you will left a line to show everything) and I searched online for solutions. It did said that there are two ways to knit alphabets, but I don't understand. One is sew it on, and the other... too hard to understand...

I'm not a person who will understand it by reading, but by looking at the videos to understand. Do you have an idea where can I learn better in words?
I don't want to discourage you, but letter work and such in knitting is an intermediate to advanced technique and I'm afraid you'll find yourself overwhelmed like you are now. For your first projects you need to practice keeping your gauge tight and even and remembering how to do everything. For color work I highly suggest just doing stripes for now and work your way to understanding advanced techniques.
