Learning to knit! I have casting on and the knit stitch down...still need to learn purling and adding stitches, but I'm surprised at how easy the first parts are.

I still have vivid memories of our teacher trying to teach the class to knit in 7th grade. As the generally-disliked, gawky artist girl in the class, I COULD NOT DO THAT SHIT, but the popular, cute artist girl who was also in our class could. And then she'd make a big deal out of how terrible it was. I have to admit, it was pretty fuckin' impressive at the time. If only I'd had the mad knit-stitch skills back then. IF ONLY.

Anyway, I'm makin a scarf. I think some gloves are in order next. Woo!
