There is a new contest over at Skeins Her Way. All you have to do is leave a comment with when you learned to knit.
That brought me back, to five and a half years ago (well February 2002, not quite a whole half) my dad took me to MJDesigns, someone watched the boys for me (my sister I assume) and I bought a how to knit book, two skeins of redheart kids, and some knitting needles. I went home and I figured it out. I purled wrong (which was later discovered to be the books fault) but corrected that when I purchased the knitting and crochet for dummies book. My first finished projects were a scarf for my sons dog, a grannys favorite dishcloth, and a couple of ‘oopsies’ that helped me learn about gauge the hands on way *G*
Also? I think it is so cool the winner will be drawn on my birthday. Yup it’s my birth month. I love July.
