Learning a New Craft

I learned to knit today. I am SO excited about conquering the basics of a new craft! I have been trying to teach myself from a book on and off (mostly "off") for a few years, but finally I met someone who could teach me. Within an hour, I was knitting away .... yes, and quite happily, too!

I have a need to learn every craft invented. Currently I'm into beading (as in beaded bookmarks or little bead bracelets for my toddler and 7yo to wear...and then pop...and then little beads are rolling all over the floor). And now I'm into knitting!

What are you creating?

Hey Lori! I just started knitting in November. Don't you find it incredibly relaxing? I can't believe I didn't try this years ago. I've been making scarves for everyone I've ever met or hope to meet.

I am making a scarf, too. I am already wishing that our winters were slightly longer - I want to knit more!
