Hello, I'm knitting bod popping in to say 'hello' to everyone.

I've been knitting for just under 30 years and always have a knitting project (or two!) on the go.

I'm knitting my husband a pair of socks in King Cole merino DK at the moment; I only have the toe shaping to do on the second sock and they're done!

Hi Knitting Bod - welcome to the forum.

My Grandma taught me to knit when I was 5, I'm now 48! I didn't knit regularly until I was pregnant with my first daughter 27 years ago although I did start a shawl for my pregnant friend when I was 16 but my Grandma had to finish it for me. Now I knit all the time and I love all the new wools that are available now although some of it does work out a bit expensive! Last year I knitted a cardi that cost me £78.00 for the wool but I have put weight on and it looks a bit tight now - must knit more to stop me eating!!

Hello and welcome

Hi Knitting bod

You sound like you will fit right in here.
I have been knitting for over 40 years and love making socks.
I think we all have a problem with yarn addiction! That leads us all into lots of projects on the go and in waiting.

I sympathise with you Jane and your expensive cardigan that is a bit tight. You are not alone there .

Janet

Thanks for all the lovely welcomes everyone!
