I love to knit

Hi friends. I'm so excited about this new/old discovery that i totally love knitting. I'm just going to thank Erin, a girl i met and knew for maybe an hour from UVA who while i was looking at and thru her purse (she said i could) i pulled out this great little knitted bag." Wow, that is so cool", i said! She looked in it, and it was empty, she said " That old thing. You can have that! I was so excited. I carry my ipod in it now. It is way cool.

Estrella (Star) my maid/nanny, taught me how to knit, when i was 9 yrs old. She was so much fun to be with and taught me so much about making things. I knit an entire barbie skirt suit. (pants were to hard) it was way fun. She was 18 when she moved in with us and took care of the household duties, cleaning, cooking, even helped us with our english homework, even tho she only spoke spanish.. ha! she was great. She lives in a place called Lebu, Chile which is where she is from originally. She came from a very poor family of fishermen when she moved to Santiago, the capital of Chile where we lived at the time. I really miss her.

So, then one night i couldn't sleep and decided to pick up my knitting needles again and see if i could make something small with beads in it (like erin's little bag) i made a pen case. It was so much fun! So now with my knitting buddies, Gaylyn, Erin (Rierson, up and coming knitter.) Kim, Jody (learning crochet), Mom, and Candace (up and coming LEFTY knitter) we are planning to have more knitting partys. It is so much fun to chat and knit. I love it. Anyone interested is totally welcome to join us. Last sunday we watched Kevin James stand up. oh my gosh histerical!! I love having girl time. Brian loves it too. He gets to do whatever he hasn't been able to cause i've been stuck to him.. tee hee. love you sweetie.
