Did you try knitting using the instructions in books or magazines?
Good day to my dear friends! I want to wish you a nice mood today! Hope, you're ok! Exploring the World of Knitting Did you try knitting using the instructions in books or magazines? I remember, when I found my first knitting book at my mother's house, but it was so difficult for me to understand what I should do. Learning Through Visual Examples I'm a visual person; for me, it was easier to repeat after my granny. What About You? And you?

Most cherished
The most cherished knit or crocheted objects we have are the baby afghans made for each of my children. Those Afghans are crocheted. We also have a white knit blanket that was used for each of their Christenings. Linda Clouthier
