Much Less Complicated Than it Looks June 9, 2009

Posted by Emily in : Projects , trackback

I’m sort of embarrassed to admit something . . .

but I have to get it off my chest.

I would hate for any of you to think I’m more crafty than I am.

Here’s the truth . . .

Knitting on a knitting loom is EASY.

Do you actually think I would embrace a new hobby that required me to think?

Honestly.

I don’t like to think unless absolutely necessary!

Here’s a secret, you can do it too!  Go buy yourself a knitting loom, follow the instructions on the back of the packaging, and start you’re own knitting factory!  (You of course, being the only factory worker.  But still . . .)

It’s so easy and quite a conversation piece.  Once you knit in public, (public meaning your font porch while watching your child draw with chalk) all closet knitters come out and knock on your door.

Three of my neighbors (ages 10, 11, 12) have come over to knit with me on my porch.

True story.

Welcome to Kansas, home to all closet knitters.

Can I teach this to myself? I’m a really good crochet-er but I never find great beanie patterns for crochet and I’d love to be able to make cute little hats for friends’ babies. And my own, of course.

Melanie, it’s a NO BRAINER. You can totally do this! Follow the pics, read a few lines of instructions, and you’ve got it!
