HA HA, I`ll remember you in my will. I know for sure you`d appreciate my yarn choices. lol

No way should you wipe out any of your yarn budget for these shows. If there`s anything really cool I`ll tape it and send it to you. Right now, they`re working out the kinks (I hope) and it`s very elementary stuff, which is great if you`re learning, wish I`d had it when I was learning. It`s great to see the knitting shows on, finally!

Why send it to me of course! We always buy the same thing.

I don`t have cable, but a knitting show makes it a bit more tempting. Glad to hear they aren`t that great, paying for cable would wipe out my yarn budget.]]> Sun, 04 Jul 2004 08:47:13 GMT http://www.elann.com/Commerce.web/forums/messages.aspx?TopicID=134880
Much to my surprise, my girls don`t knit either. Eldest DD doesn`t knit or crochet, youngest DD crochets. She`s a southpaw and I think I may have to learn continental to teach her to knit, which I`d like to learn anyway. I may need to get an intensive on hands-on tutoring session for that. How about it Theresa? They both like me to knit for them which I`m really happy about, otherwise what in the world would I do with all this yarn? ;-}

I liked the first show, though it`s a little frustrating for an more advanced knitter at this point, I suppose. It must get more complicated as it goes on - wasn`t it a bizarre feeling to be watching knitting for knitting`s sake on telly, without it being a peripheral in a film or something??? They had a camera which showed the knitting from the knitter`s perspective - why didn`t they use it more?? And I couldn`t believe that statistic - the number of women under 35 knitting increased by 400% bewteen 1998 and 2002, could you?
