RE: Knitting/crocheting

[Guest guest]

Nice job, nne. I used to knit years & years ago. I never learned

how to crochet, though.

I used to make myself sweaters but always had a hard time with the neck.

I always knitted them

too tight and sometimes would have a hard time getting them over my head

(hehe). But eventually

I got the swing of it.

Your kids are adorable. I can't believe they've grown so much.

Knitting/crocheting (Gabby)

Knitting has become, by far, my new favorite hobby. It's something easy

that

I can do with our two small children around, and it's not too difficult

to

stop and start whenever it's convenient and the mood strikes me. It's

also

relatively inexpensive, and I don't have to drag out a lot of supplies

in

order to do it! (Otherwise, with things like scrapbooking, the kids

would

get into everything!) So do you still crochet and sew? Do you

crochet/sew

things to go along with your soaps? I have a sewing machine and have

made a

few things, but I'm sure not as talented as my mom and mother-in-law

are. My

mom used to sew lots of my clothes when I was little! I'd *love* to be

able

to make simple outfits for our children ... maybe someday! I have sewed

Boppy nursing pillow slipcovers and lots of baby blankets (rectangles

are

super easy, LOL!). If you'd like to see what I've been knitting so far,

I've

posted some pictures on Flickr:

I don't think that I've posted current pictures of our kids lately. As a

proud mama, it's my right to do that. Here's me with Lucas. He turns

four

on March 22nd:
