General Knitting

Hi all!

I’m Lindsay, and I’m new to the board so I thought I’d say hello.

I started knitting a year ago but only stuck with it for about two months. I just started again and, well, let’s just say I don’t think knitting is an intuitive talent for me. But I’m trying to get better!

I’m 24, and a stay at home mom (may be working part time soon, though) to Jane (21 months) and Erica (5 months). I’ve been married to Roger for 4 years and we live in beautiful Northern California.

If anyone wants to know more about me you can always check out my website http://www.talulafairie.com/

I look forward to knitting and chatting with all of you :slight_smile:

ETA: I thought I should add, that I learned to knit from the videos on this site! I also have a knitting book (Stich N Bitch) but I did NOT understand how to knit without seeing a video. So thanks, Amy, for maintaining this site! It has helped me immensely.

welcome Lindsay :slight_smile: glad you are getting back into knitting. stick with it, as initially it might be frustrating but in no time you’ll be more confident and wanting to try all kinds of new stuff.

I’m in northern CA too, but in the not-so-pretty south bay.
