Everyone must be learning to knit (cause we are everyone)! I just learned last week also. I've been inspired by SouleMama.
Made my first washrag. But I have decided that if we are to depend upon me to knit washrags in order to clean the dishes then we might be better to use the whole ball of yarn. Took a who week to do one little rag and I'm not sure it will hold up to washing...haha!!
That's awesome! I've always wanted to learn how to knit and now I'm jealous- you'll be able to watch all those cool knitting shows on DIY and know what they're talking about. :)
My mom never would teach me to knit because I'm left handed, and evidently that also makes me un-teachable. Good for you! And that would make another lovely scarlet picture. ;)
