If you understand that, then you are a true knitter. For those of you who are like me and aren’t a knitter, it means knit 2, purl 2 and repeat. All of this is making my brain hurt.

The mother unit has been on a felting high lately. She made me this beautiful purse. I just love it.

Now that doesn’t look too hard right? Well, I got this crazy idea in my head that I should knit and felt a purse too. I am by no means a knitter. It is just not my thing to be sitting for hours knitting away in my rocking chair with a cup of tea, but I decided to try it anyway.

I haven’t gotten very far. On Saturday the mother unit got me started and I had a headache and my hands started going numb after a few hours. Not my kind of fun, but I am not giving up yet. I got home and started doing it again. I dropped a stitch and panic set in. I tried to fix it, but only made it worse. So I had to wait until Sunday when I could have the mother unit fix it, and of course in seconds she had me back on my way. I think that if I make it to the end of this project, it will be many moons before I do another. I just cannot handle all the stress.
