About two years ago I decided that I wanted to learn to knit.  So I went to A.C. Moore and purchased My Knitting Teacher: 25+ Projects (Includes Special Left Hand Instructions) and started knitting.  Well, attempted to knit.  It was very awkward and, after a few attempts, I decided knitting wasn’t me.

Second Time’s the Charm

Around this time, mom was bit by the crochet bug and was working on blankets, blankets and more blankets.  I thought, since I taught myself this in high school, I should be able to get right back in the swing of things.  I was right and started crocheting here and there.

Then the guilt set in.  Did I really give knitting a chance?   Not really.  So, I gave it another whirl and took the project into to work.  It was then I learned most of the women I work with were knitters or crocheted.  AWESOME!  Now, I had someone to ask my stupid questions.

And Away We Go

So, I happily gave knitting another go and finished a scarf using the only stitch I know.  Knit.  Three scarves later, I think I’m ready to learn another stitch.
