New Knitters Everywhere!
Yesterday my knitting group met at Panera for some ridiculously enormous cookies and knitting fun. My friend Kristin recently found out she is having a baby, so I guess the nesting instinct kicked in and she decided she wanted to learn to knit. I brought some basic supplies for her, and showed her how to cast on and the basic knit stitch. She picked it up really quickly, and had a cute little square of garter stitch going before I knew it! So I went ahead and taught her how to purl. Again, she got it super fast! I sent her home with my well-loved copy of Stitch n Bitch.
Apparently she was doing so well that her husband decided to have a go -- great pictures and commentary here! I am not laughing at make knitters in general, but I know this guy and it's just funny. After seeing the pictures, I'm just imagining him getting all tangled up in the yarn!

Your plot to dominate the world and all its yarn is succeeding well I see!

I just saw your post from a couple weeks ago about friends in Springfield. I was just thinking about that tonight as we all gathered for dinner and bible study. I really appreciate your friendship Sarah. I have been very blessed to call you all my really good friends. I hope and pray that our group molds into a lasting friendships for a life time. You all have made my transition to Springfield an easy one. Thank you! Thank you!
