| Knitting |
When summer winds down, preparing for Fall, my thoughts turn to knitting. I am addicted to cable knits or any kind (leggings, vests, tunics, scarves, etc). I ruminate lovingly on cold Winter afternoons at grandma’s house, working on knit Christmas projects, or lately, cross-stitch Christmas tree skirts. Does anyone else have this nostalgia moment, too?

I used Noxzema from the time I was old enough to wash my own face, all through school and into adulthood. Then I decided it wasn't 'sophisticated' enough and went with higher priced, higher end products.

While it's true that many of us guys prefer younger women, there are some (like me) that find women over 50 much sexier.

If your going to be financially secure enough to venture out and see whats available in the B & B field...take your time and check it out. If you have to jump into a job..just to have one..you will not be happy. Hope you get the time to find wh
Yes, I have started rummaging through my stash looking for something to knit. I like socks on double pointed needles.
Me too. At the moment I’m knitting a pair of very colourful self patterning socks for my daughter and her little girl.
Had enough yarn left over from the pair I knit my daughter to make a pair for my grand daughter.
DD will only wear the socks I knit, she doesn’t like the “store bought” kind anymore.
I also knit slippers and dishcloths but am not brave enough to tackle a sweater yet.
I have tried various times through the years to knit, & although I have completed patterns (the Cabbage Patch doll had a couple of cute sweaters!) I always felt kind of spastic. My mom was a beautiful knitter & growing up I still remember my wonderful sweaters & matching hats. My favourite was a soft peach angora cartigan, oh yum, I wish I had another.
Kudos to knitters! I sew constantly but the machine& ironing board just doesn’t radiate peace & calm like knitting needles & a ball of wool does.
I used to sew a lot of my own clothes. Let’s hear it for home ec, now I don’t really have the space for it and I don’t like all the stuff being kept up in the dining room. Knitting is very portable.
I can’t knit, my mother is a beautiful, knitter. I crochet and quilt. Quiting is my calming meds. I also crochet when I’m watching TV, or should I say when TV is on for the noise, that’s very calming too becuase you do the same stich over and over. Like knitting, crocheting is more for winter, but quilting I do all year, make lots of presents & I sold a few items also, very rewarding!
