One year ago today

One year ago today I walked into Joann's in Rochester Hills and took my first knitting class. It was only the teacher and I so I got a lot of personal attention. I had been attempting to knit for a few months and just didn't think I was getting. Little did I know that if I would knit more than 3 or 4 stiches before ripping it out I would of had it on my own. Taking that class is one of the best things I have done. I still have the certificate I got from the class.

I don't know what made me want to knit. I have never been big on arts and crafts. I think getting married changed all that. Mostly I was inspired by Amy and Sherry. I wanted to make all the nice things they did. I am glad that these two wonderful women inspired me. Knitting has become my salvation. When I am stressed or upset I knit and it relaxes me. I love the feeling of making something with my own two hands. However, the best part of this knitting adventure is the wonderful friends I have made. I look forward to spending my Wednesday nights with them every week. I can not wait to see what the next year of being a knitter holds for me. Until next time ....
