No one else in the family knits, I'm hoping Gracie will continue to show interest.<BR/>I really wish someone on Bobby's side would learn to knit, my plate is full with my side of the family.<BR/>I love ALL those items! especially the gloves! :^)Mariannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01500636360349398921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5422935940416214468.post-36054955901713136352009-01-15T12:22:00.000+00:002009-01-15T12:22:00.000+00:00Both my grandmothers knitted, one also crocheted. ...Both my grandmothers knitted, one also crocheted. My mum still knits, MIL has given it away but still crochets. Eldest SIL knits and crochets. My sister can knit & crochet but doesn't have time. Her D#2 knits sometimes. My DD knits. My WM can knit - slowly. My dad can knit and crochet but doesn't! Apparently he crocheted my first cardigan!! So, let's keep on keeping it in the family!
