Have you ever knit in your sleep, not just dreaming, but actually doing the movements? Don has caught/watched me knit in my sleep many times. Once I actually did get up, still asleep, and picked up my knitting and not just did the movements, actually knit while sleeping. (as a child I was a sleep-walker) Hugs, Noreen I hope you don't have an upstairs and downstairs: that could prove a bit dangerous if your knitting was downstairs and your 'sleeping knitter" got the urge to knit. -- Carey in MA |

To the question "what if we all had three arms?", two of the answers were "Hugging would be more difficult" and "Hugging would be more fun!" I have occasionally had the thought that while I can knit while watching tv, chatting, waiting for things to appear on my computer, etc., it's too bad I can't knit while knitting! In other words, I'll be watching tv and working on some simple knitting, like an garter stitch lap blanket, and suddenly think "Too bad I can't work on the socks while I'm doing this!" |

There's a cute commercial that comes on TV from time to time depicting a mother octupus who is multi-tasking: vacuuming while dusting while cooking while rocking the baby and feeding it a bottle, the punch line is that she wishes she had a few more arms. ;-)) Murielle |
