Warning: Startitis is Contagious

August 27th, 2006 | 6 Comments

When I first read KathyMarie’s post on startitis, I figured I was immune. I tend to be a two-project knitter—one project for toting and stealing a few stitches while waiting at bus stops and one project for sitting and knitting away while I watch TV.

Knitting While Walking = More Time to Knit

July 14th, 2006 | 3 Comments

I knit as I climbed some stairs.
I knit as I got some stares.

Not only was I knitting while walking, but I was cabling while walking.

I am awesome.
