What a wonderful week it has been! Snow pelted us for two days and we have been snowed in for a week! Many people think it is smart to stay home than get hair done when the roads are horrible! I don't disagree! Thus, I have knitted a lot this week and finished my sweater sleeves. I took my future (very near future) mother-in-law's advice and knitted both sleeves on the round to make sure they are exactly the same length! It worked great!
Courtney, my 18 year old who lives at home, had her friends over. Sarah, Austin, John. And to my surprise asked me to teach them to knit! It was Austin first. Then John and finally Sarah! I love to knit and it is so fun to share my love with others! I hope they love it too. Don't give up Sarah! You will get it!
I remember how awkward it was trying to hold so many things at once and praying the yarn would go where I wanted it to! I got to share yarn with them from my yarn stash! Lonely skeins that would otherwise just sit there!
Not only have I gotten to share my love of knitting but with really wonderful kids!
