Day 11: 354


LEARNING TO KNIT
I've been crocheting off and on since I was twelve. I mean, I let it lapse during my high school and college years, but when I got married and was pregnant with my first child, I tried to pick it up again. That first blanket was SO heavy! There was a lady at my job that saw me crocheting and she used to laugh at me because she saw how I was crocheting and it tickled her. Well, she finally had mercy and showed me how to do it right. I was initially never interested in knitting, but recently I began to wonder if it was something I could learn. My neice tried to teach me a few years ago, but I didn't really take to it. Maybe if I had lived closer (CA and OH, kind of far) I could have kept pestering her to show me more. I have a few ladies at my job that have been super wonderful! They have been so encouraging as I took my first baby steps and knit my first project. Now I've gotten a little more confident and I've begun making hats and scarves. Yeah!! I might have to sell some! :-D Hahaha, baby steps, Tammy, baby steps.
