And you just had me making imaginary hand movements to see if I can remember how to cast off knitting ... it's a bit hazy!!Mel @ Wildflowerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03470126942351062595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1141622931272047282.post-78756871185083736392012-08-08T21:10:27.487+12:002012-08-08T21:10:27.487+12:00You've got your sons knitting!

When I got tired of it and had forgotten how to cast off (again) I'd put it in a pile, grab a new pair of needles and start another one. ;)Louisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09043122487729540469noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1141622931272047282.post-24176276591271634022012-08-07T10:16:49.028+12:002012-08-07T10:16:49.028+12:00Hi Mel, my son has discovered knitting and is tryi...Hi Mel, my son has discovered knitting and is trying his hardest!

I tried again a couple of years ago, and got the hang of it this time.Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05266722417757669826noreply@blogger.com
