Okay, stop laughing! A friend has taken up knitting and doing a really nice job at it. Several years back I decided to teach myself to knit..yeah, well that didn't work out too well. I have needles of all sizes! I have books for idiots! I just have NO patience! In the years past I have given away/thrown away the yarn, but over the weekend I found this yarn and I sorta liked the color scheme but I love the soft feel of it! So the needles and books haven't come out of the closet yet but they will soon, I hope. Knitting seems like a winter hobby...however, I'm thinking it will take till winter for me to just figure out the first stitch! I keep asking myself 'how hard can it be'? Because I know people that can knit and some of them I know were born without a creative gene..but they can knit! But for some reason my mind will not wrap around the concept of making knots with two needles!! My patient mother attempted to teach me to crochet...so I did complete one project, it was a baby blanket for my first born. Thank goodness babies don't care if they're blankets are rectangular or pyramid shaped! As long as you only saw it folded up it looked good..just don't lay it out flat! I can cross stitch with the best of the pros...it's just something with string that boggles my little brain. So don't be checking the blog just to see this finished project real soon.....but I will try to keep you posted....like when I finally get the needed needles out of the closet!
