My mom taught me when I was 6 or 7 or so. I remember not understanding how to turn a round, so my mom had to flip my coaster for me. 😂 Then I dropped it for years.
I didn't really start knitting seriously until college. That was before I was diagnosed with #ADHD, so all I knew was I concentrated better in class when I had my hands busy working on hats. Been knitting ever since!
My best friend had recently learned and invited me to join her group that met at Borders weekly on Sundays. If that tells you how long ago that was. LOL. My first project was a dishcloth and after spending hours on that I said never again and made scarves and hats ever since.
Two of my best friends both gave birth within an month and I try to be SCRUPULOUSLY FAIR in providing them with knitwear. But duplicates are boring! So I’m knitting their Christmas jumpers two at a time.
