I am going to learn to knit. I am so excited! My AA home group is filled with a bunch of inspiring old timers where most of the women knit during meetings. I’m not sure if it’s a good idea for me to knit during meetings (I’m easily distracted), but I do love the idea of doing something creative and calming that you can do anywhere. So I bought this little starter kit at the local craft store. You know, one of those “anyone can do it” kits. Guess what? I couldn’t. I watched an HGTV show that showed the rock bottom beginner how to “cast on.” But I couldn’t do it. Now, way out here in the boonies, I’ve found someone just down the road who gives lessons in her home every Thursday! And knitting seems so zen to me. ;-) How cool is that?
