My Knitting History...

My daughter drew this little cartoon (published with the permission of the artist) for my blog. Cool, eh?

And while we are just "thinking" about knitting...

This came across one of my knitting lists (strange thing is, there are a bunch of items I never even heard of or know what they are):

Mark with bold the things you have knit, with italics the ones you plan to do sometime, and leave the rest.
