MysWendy ,, i hope that was a joke ,,, no way do i make myself crazy
with knitting , We have enough unkind words from those who don`t know/
enjoy/like knitting , why add such deffinitions to ourselves ,? I am
immersed in knitting i like knitting , on the month with cast on arm i
was unhappy for lack of ability to use my hand ,,,, i leave unkind
terms to the Jealous unkind types , who are envieious of our gift of
being able to fill out time with a creative craft/art ,, mirjam

Actually, knitting is not what I enjoy the most. Neither is sewing.
What I like is the end product, which is a garment that has the right
fiber content, is the right color, and fits far superior to what I can
find in ready-to-wear (and I can't afford to have clothes made for me)
so I focus on the goal.

GOOD GRIEF GUYS, IT WAS A JOKE. Sigh. If we didn't love it, we
wouldn't do it.

Ah, a sister in spirit. I feel that way about knitting, sewing, crochet
etc., but I was taught not to sit with idle hands so I knit etc.in front
of the tv, at meetings, sitting in waiting rooms etc. so that the time
is not wasted. (Of course, the admiration I get from friends when I
appear in something custom hand made doesn't hurt).
