I learned how to knit about 2 years ago but am still in the beginner stage.  My present projects include socks and a couple of baby blankets.  Since I work in the NICU - I tend to make small premie blankets.  And loads of dishcloths!! 

[Pat]

ohhh... Socks are so scary!! Show us some pics when you can!

[BatikPhoenix]

I'm a quilter who does not play with yarn.   

I cross stitch and do redwork.  I'm an avid reader.  Add in quilting and genealogy and I don't have much free time left!!

Someday I'll get nerve enough to try tatting.  Does anyone do that??

[Pat]

Lisa I've never done tatting... one of the few crafts I have not at least tried!

I DO need to get my beaded necklace out from art & soul and work on it. right after quilt market

[MissMaryL$$T]

I play with yarn and have tatted - although its been many years ago.  One of my Grandmother's showed me and after her death, I took a class.   I also crochet and weave baskets.  But my favortie all time crafts are quilting and knitting! 

[Pat]

I tried a basket ONCE.. I use it for napkins and love it.. but I buy LOTS and LOTS of baskets... love them!!!

I mostly crochet.. have done some beading.. just took a beading workshop and want to get the necklace finished SOON!

I love to play with yarn too. I have been knitting for about 8 years now. I have made myself some nice sweaters but my favorite thing to knit is socks. I have been in the rockin sock club for 3 years now and I try to keep up but i think my obsession with quilting gets in the way sometimes... LOL

[Pat]

you are amazing to do sweaters.. lots of precision!!   I told margi to read this one as she is sock obessed!  you should read her blog hehe...

I want to crochet something small soon ... have to get my yarn out and play!!  and update my yarn blog... it's most a journal where I keep things I see so I don't forget them!

[Margi is here!]

Oh yeah, I am as much a yarn-a-holic as I am a fabr-a-holic!  Totally sock obsessed, just finishing up the Knitters' Brewing Company Mystery Sock KAL with beads!  I can't believe I did beads and knitting but it is so kewl.  My blog shows all of my addictions, well OK almost all of them,,,,,,,, my kid, my fabric, my yarn, my animules!  tee hee
