yes, yes, i know, it brings to mind images of little old ladies. BUT.
i started knitting the other day, because i saw a magazine that included needles and wool, and patterns for a buttload of cute stuff. the main thing? two cute little teddies!
one cat, one dog.
atm, i'm knitting a cushion, to get into it. it's bright orange. i'll post photos when i've done moar of it.

I tred knitting a few times but the idea of actually knitting something that isn't just a lump of knitted together wool scares me.

lawl, rokkan.
it's actually quite relaxing, because it's so repetitive.

I wanted to learn how to knit when I was little, but now I wouldn't have time for since I've been crocheting dolls.

My knitting is like
crazy neat
but I can't cast off so I basically just make ENDLESS SCARVES.
I should probably learn to cast off.

I've never knitted. I did try croshaying (spelling?) once. In 8th grade. When I had to take Home Ec for 6 weeks. I did so little I'm surprised I passed that class.
