A knitting survey

I saw this ’survey’ in this blog. It intersted me since I wanted to think about what I have done and what I'd like to try out. You don't realize how much you've done till you look through a list. I'm happy with myself.

  2. Just reading down the list was fun. I haven't knitted in a while, though I am on a crochet kick right now. Even so I was delighted to acknowledge items I've done on the list as well as all that I would love to learn and *do!*

    Thanks too for visiting my blog ... and I just case you don't return to my most recent post for my response to you ... go to a thrift shop and get an old hardcover book with relatively sturdy pages ... and gesso them. You can even glue some pages together to make them more sturdy. What do you think about that? :)

  3. You should! Grannie squares are fun.

  4. It's interesting to realize what you've done in the past. I didn't know I made so many different things.

    Ooo, I like that idea. Especially if it was an interesting title. And yay for recycling :)
