Oh how I LOVE to KNIT. I have made tote bags and have sold them to some girls where I work. I had a friend from work that wanted a hat made. So I made her a hat for her teenage daughter for Christmas. I have made lots of baby blankets crochet. I just can't sit down with out having something else to do besides watch tv. I have a facebook page called BIT BY BIT KNIT. It has pictures of a few of the bags I have done.
Everyone has a talent of some sort. I just like to knit.

I'm quite embarrassed to say this but I didn't even know knitting and crochet were two different things But I'm clueless in all the arts and craft department.

I have books that teach knitting and crocheting that I got from Mom. She didn't really need them, but used them as a refresher. I love all the crocheted doilies Mom made and I have a drawer full of them, small ones and some are quite large. Even dresser runners. They are beautiful. I have a few out now, but once I get the house totally cleaned I want to put even more out.

Sometime, I hope to get the books out and see if I can teach myself. I don't know of any classes being taught, but will keep my eyes and ears open. That would be fun.

I've done a little bit of both knitting and crocheting but I found out that I really liked cross-stitching. I haven't done much of it since I'm on the computer now. I also have done some scrapbooking but with the kids here I've given up getting any of that done.

I'm planning on getting some pictures framed and hung up. That's my craft for this month!!!

Diana..I know you use to have a cricut machine, didn't you like it? I'm still thinking one might be nice. Meijer had them for $149.00. I'm just afraid I won't keep interested in it. With learning knitting and crocheting, I'm really no out any money if I decide I don't care for it because I have all I need of Mom's.

I think I would really like to start knitting - I may see if I can find someone to teach me.
