Bad Ass Knitter

I only say that because my mother once casually mentioned to an Aunt that I wasn't very good. Of course I wasn't!
Anywhosie, it's a better title than Things I Have Learned.
And maybe only THING I have learned. And that thing is, cables and fanciness don't look great on variegated yarn. That stuff is fancy enough.
I learned my optimism is more like crazy denial.
I learned my hands will one day take all my hobbies from me. But that I will manage to work until the day before my funeral.

I learned mohair from WISH is not something anyone will like hand working with... it's like hairy sewing thread.

I learned some people don't like dog hair mixed in their knits. I think I always knew this. It just stung a bit more in person.
I am sure there is more. It's been a long year worth of learning.
But I know I love knitting and crocheting and hope I can continue to enjoy it for years to come.
