Anya: We should drop a piano on her. It always works for that creepy cartoon rabbit when he's running from that nice man with the speech impediment. Giles: Yes, or perhaps we could paint a convincing fake tunnel on the side of a mountain.

Me three! But I'm knitting a sweater now that is all 80's old school fat sleeves and therefore...made of four rectangular pieces. Hee!

I want to learn how to knit.

Art Crawl!!!

Ooh, I'm knitting my first sweater - started last night. It's a top-down raglan sweater that I'm knitting in an undyed wool yarn. Very pretty white and gray yarn.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Mom says she's going to teach me to knit but so far it hasn't happened.

sumi my first (and only) sweater was a Cascade blue top-down raglan sweater. It was a gift for my mom and it pilled up a storm. I don't think she can wear it anymore, I suspect it's given up the ghost. She wore it every time I saw her for six months. I think she was hinting for another.

I've tried to knit, but I always forget if I'm knitting or purling when I put it down for a while. Crochet is much simpler.

I know someone who learned to knit watching clips on youtube. I am happy to teach people to knit, but you'd have to come here.

I've learned new techniques from youtube but I learned to knit from an aunt and classes.

I took a class to do Fair Isle knitting, learned, and promptly never used it again. I would have to teach myself that technique again. I found it really stressful navigating two colors at once.
