Matter-Eater Lad Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 Anyone knit? I'm thinking about trying it. I'm fully embracing my motto of "know something about everything, and everything about something" I'm learning all about construction, figure I should try knitting, as something else different and easier. Then I'm going talk to my uncle about helping out at the farm after I finish next semester. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrMagpie Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 If construction workers knitted while watching other people work they would be much more productive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matter-Eater Lad Posted November 25, 2010 Author Share Posted November 25, 2010 I can knit a coat if that's what you mean by knitting.... my grandma showed me Yes, that. If construction workers knitted while watching other people work they would be much more productive. hahahaha. That's what i'll do. Knit when there isn't anything to do. They'll respect me more that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMagpie Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 At least all the retired couples will think its sweet of you and you'll be in their good books. My grandmother is somewhere in Florida right now. You should say hello. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pickle Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 My grandmother tried teaching me how to knit once. She's really old and has arthreitis (spelling fail) and I kept forgetting what the steps were so that didn't really work out well. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

notlost92 Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 I knit! everyone at my college knits... I just finished making myself a scarf. it's harder cause I'm left-handed, though- the person who taught me how to knit had to teach me everything backwards :uhoh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Violet Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 I had my bestie try to teach me how to knit once. Over an hour later, I was still completely lost. It was a pretty big fail, not gonna lie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megalomania Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 If you're not good at knitting, try crocheting. Just as fun and a lot easier! :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Violet Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 It's funny, because that same bestie who tried to teach me to knit knows nothing about crochet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobalt Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 I'm fully embracing my motto of "know something about everything, and everything about something" Isn't there also a saying, "he who knows something about everything really knows everything about nothing" or something like that?

Matter-Eater Lad Posted November 27, 2010 Author Share Posted November 27, 2010 Isn't there also a saying, "he who knows something about everything really knows everything about nothing" or something like that? I know you are but what am I? haha yeah there is. But it's a shit saying. I like my motto better. It's more fun. I think that's true if you only know a little bit about everything. I still want to pick one thing to know everything i can about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bright Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 One of my friends is pretty skilled at crocheting but knows nothing about knitting :wacky: she's made so many hats haha but she misplaces them so yeah she doesnt have many left :anxious:. I've never tried crocheting but I'm almost done with knitting a sweater. Hmm I'm not very good though so I'll finish it when I go home to my parents for christmas. My mum will have to show me how to knit the last part Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
