Yet they are loved. I think we have to accept that knitter's love is a slightly different beast than recipients'! Meanwhile, good knitting to you with all those scarves ;^)Mary Keenanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05260934319762115179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2023057129228541740.post-85010519320128254862012-02-03T01:50:19.925-05:002012-02-03T01:50:19.925-05:00This really fit me today.

I started knitting around a year ago and really love it (like I read about 20 different knitting blogs, and check ravelry more than once a day love). I recently decided to knit something for everyone in my family (which live an ocean away from me, and I havent seen personally in around 9 years) to show them I love them. I asked all of them what they want and one whole side of the family asked for scarves. Now, most new knitters would be all, "yaay, I can do scarves" I am like "uggg, boring non changing tubes of death" ......they NEVER end, yes, I can knit while reading granted, but it is sooooo BORING, I realized that I do have to do it, and I am glad to give something I made to the people I love, but I need to have something going on for me to at the same time to sto the monotomy of knitting 4 scarves, that I am not even sure if they will truly be loved.UmmRaniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12656810637069590405noreply@blogger.com
