Learned to knit through many patient hours sat with my mam as she tirelessly picked up the stitches I lost, or fixed the numerous stitches I seemed to pick up.....Bless her!
Now I seem to just knit small quick projects, usually handwarmers as they make excellent gifts, hats for myself and my daughter and I always seem to be knitting cleaning cloths - they're just far to pretty to use to do the cleaning though!
I also spend a lot of time reading books, and can often be found with my Kindle perched on my knee as I try to follow a knitting pattern.
