    Does double knotting my son's shoes count?

    I would love to learn to knit or crochet, as it seems both these activites can be done quietly, in front of a TV, and while talking to others. I cannot stand simply sitting on the couch watching TV!

    I do have a lovely sewing machine- I have used it for making cat toys. Exclusively. LOL.

    LOL yes! it counts.

    There is a really great book out there called teach yourself to knit in a day, I will find it on Joannes site, super easy I am told and very easy to follow!
    I learned the hard way! by watching my great aunts needles fly, one took pity on me and taught me how when i was around 12. learned to crochet in the Girl Scouts

    I knit and weave (yes with a loom). I couldn't crochet if my life depended on it. I have been kniting for over 20 years so I am pretty good at it, but everytime I try and learn to crochet I promptly forget everything. It is like my mind is a giant sieve and crocheting is water that runs right through it

    I knit, crochet and sew. Make quilts, cats beds and cat toys along with other things.

    OH, I just made this... It was suppose to be a yardstick cat (Made from yarn)but it came out looking like a dog so I put doggie ears on it rather than cat ears.




    I am also working on a croched shawl right now. This one found here....

    I can Sew, but that is it! I would love to learn how to Knit or Crochet, but sewing is all I know how to do. I do sew very well.

    I used to cross-stitch, but I haven't in a long time. And, I know how to knit!

    I knit, cross stitch, embroider and sew. As a matter of fact I'm going to the Stitches convention this weekend in Santa Clara, CA. It's a trade show for knitters/crocheter's. It's my first one and looks to be fun!
