Tight-knit

A few months ago I asked a neighbor to teach me to knit. Several washcloths later, I felt ready to try a new pattern. (For those who are not knit-savvy, there are only two stitches in knitting, but myriad variations and patterns.)

I chose another washcloth pattern because washcloths bring a quick sense of accomplishment. I'm feeling empowered now and might try a scarf next.

Then the other night I read an article about a knitter who is using her skill to beautify cities. I love the blend of quirkiness with this old art.

Read about KnittaPlease, and be sure to look at the gallery. Then call me if you need a washcloth.
