Not everyone needs to be obsessed with everything. <BR/>And knitting actually has a very calming, zen-like quality to it. I know you'll enjoy it if you let me get my hands on you!<BR/>Love always, Me.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20255947.post-1136504933729252132006-01-05T15:48:00.000-08:002006-01-05T15:48:00.000-08:00Maybe someday I'll have the patience for knitting....Maybe someday I'll have the patience for knitting... so much vocabulary and strategy I'm not sure I could do it! But if you and I had an oppurtunity to go over the structure of it all, then I would defenitley be up for it! Afterall, I ONLY want to be taught by the best. :-)<BR/><BR/>That's quite a lot of projects to be doing at once! It makes sense though. Maybe it would get too boring or something if you only had one at a time, but I don't know.Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17476747909837719028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20255947.post-1136445564182676962006-01-04T23:19:00.000-08:002006-01-04T23:19:00.000-08:00Hi Stephny!

You just commented on the fluffy pink blanket, and I just posted two more pictures of some blue baby blankets for lil Sprout. I have also started some gloves but haven't gotten too far. I am actually done knitting and blocking (laying the knitted garments out to prepare them for finishing ((sewing together))) an adorable baby blue sweater knit out of Cashsoft (a fabulous cashmere blend yarn) for Sprout's 1st birthday (oh, I am that good) and an olive green shirt and footed leggings outfit knit in Rowan Wool Cotton for Sprout that I hope he can still wear by the time I feel confident enough to sew the seams together. My finishing class isn't until February--shoot. If not, I guess I can always frog the top (frog means rip out--rip it, rip it) and knit it in the larger size. The size of the leggings should be fine. I will post pictures of these projects when I get them finished. The last project half done is a wonderful little beaded purse knit in size 0000 needles. (The smaller the number, the smaller the needle). These needles are about as thick as, oh, a round toothpick. Slow going, but so fun. <BR/>How much is the limit? What does that word mean?<BR/>Some knitters are very monogamous and only work on one project until it's done. I don't understand that. I like having several projects that wait patiently for me to return to them whenever I get a hankering for them. And most of the time I find that it really helps when I'm stuck on a pattern to go to something easy and mindless for a while. <BR/>Do you think you'll ever want to knit? I can show you...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20255947.post-1136444475849005412006-01-04T23:01:00.000-08:002006-01-04T23:01:00.000-08:00Hey Tim!

Chief Brody said it to Harry at the beach right before all heck broke loose. But hey, good line.
