Knitting My Brows Over Knitting

By , December 18, 2007 1:58 pm

This week’s Unplugged Project (Yarn / String) has inspired me to try a little knitting! As I child I used to knit, but my mother did the casting on and off, and I never got as far as learning how to purl. Unfortunately any small amount of knitting knowledge that I once had, has been buried under thirty years of other information.

But nonetheless, today I saw some pretty cotton yarn and some needles in a store and I bought them! My Christmas present to myself I guess. I must be a “Crafty Mom Wannabe.”

Now, how does one knit? I know that there are a lot of wonderful knitters out there in the blogosphere. Does anyone have a recommendation for a good, basic, “how to knit” website?

I promise to post a picture of my first effort, no matter how dreadful it turns out to be!
