The Journey Begins

I've been debating for a while on starting a knitting blog. I mean there are so many out there that I'm not sure what I would have to contribute. After some thought I've decided that it's not about what I can contribute. It's more about recording my thoughts on knitting so that I can look back on where I've come from, where I'm going, and how I got there. And so it begins; my adventures in knitting...

I've been knitting for just over two years now. Looking back, I can't believe that those two years have gone by so quickly. I think it feels so quick in part because it also feels like something that I have always done. I started on a whim, I thought I'd try it on for size, like you try on a pair of shoes, to see how it fit. I've tried lots of crafts and hobbies in the past (crochet, cross stitch, hook rugs, beading...you name it I've tried it) but had never kept with any of them. As soon as I started knitting, I knew that I'd found my craft. It really was (and is) a great feeling! And now two short years later I'm still going strong. I want to learn more about this wonderful artform - and not to disappoint, the artform seems to have a limitless amount to learn.
