KNITTING

Ugh.

I have a new hobby.

Knitting. Stitch-witchery is more like it. I finally understand the big knitting resurgence/craze/mania. I have sipped from the giant fuzzy punch bowl...there's no turning back.

So here's the deal with my new compulsion...

My super-cool & hip friend Allison mentioned that she loved knitting and I immediately begged her to show me how. After a few months of talking about it, we finally got together last Thursday while our children were in preschool. It was so much fun! And despite my initial frustration I get it! Yay!

And now, I spend all my time searching for free patterns & printing them off. I sit in bed & practice. I am determined to stitch up some leg warmers for the girls while they are still in fashion. Forget about the fact I haven't even finished the simple, simple scarf I said I was making for my first project. I'm ready to start on an "Advanced Beginner" project.

Really, that's pretty good of me. I usually start off wanting to create something major--like a replica of my car in knit.

Up next! An exciting new knit related fragrance!

Bwah! Just teasing!
