[...] six weeks ago. My Mom got me started, fixed my mistakes and helped finish her up. And so did Bev’s magic hands. I know how to bind off now. I have absolutely no idea how to cast on. Which is why I [...]

You know how I feel about the whole knitting thing. :) I hope my hands are still clicking the needles when I get to be Bev’s age!

You definately need to give knitting a try! I adore “clicking needles.” That made me laugh. Half the time what I make doesn’t live up to my expectations, but I usually don’t even mind. It’s just fun!

Hi! Mrs. Rev’s sister-in-law here. I started knitting … maybe 7 years ago? It’s been awhile. Anyway, I took it up as a hobby that would relax me, instead of making me all super concerned about the finished product (hello, scrapbooking). For a long time, I only made scarves and just learned the simplest stitch. Once my friends started having babies, I finally took the plunge into making baby blankets and learning the second stitch. And that’s where I’m at today.

My point is, just start! It doesn’t have to be perfect and it doesn’t have to be complicated. My first scarf was a mess, but I still love it and wear it because I like the colors and that I made it. And no one else notices the imperfections but you!

And, for the record, I made it through many years of knitting before I got pregnant. So don’t let that scare you off ;)

4 is enough. It is time to have the necessary plumbing turned off to avoid more of these baby creature things.

Oh Big Bro… but I do want to learn how to do homemaker things. Babies, not so much. You and sister-in-law are such good parents – maybe it’s time for another little elf.

first, you knit because it is neat
second, you try sewing.
next thing you know you are wanting babies to appease the nesting syndrome.

don’t do it boo, the folks are trying to trick you into giving them grandbabbies.
