Yes!
I'd love to take knitting up but I'm so, so confused where to begin or how to do anything at all for that matter :i10:
To begin with, a dog is not mad. you see a dog growls when it's angry, and wags its tail when it's pleased. Now I growl when I'm pleased, and wag my tail when I'm angry. Therefore I am mad.

Oooh, I would like to see one! My boyfriend did suggest last night that I take up knitting as a little hobby. I don't know how patient I can be with learning it, cuz I'll probably expect to be making a cardigan in the first week! :lol:

lol I was the same when I started Lorny but it is fairly easy to pick up the basics in my opinion and I'm not a fast learner.

I got my first double pointed needles like 2 days ago and I've knitted an ok squid using them ^^ ok it wasn't perfect but it's deffo squid shaped haha

Yes=D
I would like to knit a scarf for a fashion show, rather than go on a hunt for one that looks like how i want it.
If anything, it is very useful to know ^-^
