Any knitters about?

I bead, like sewing lots of tiny seed beads into patterns to make jewellery. I don’t knit but would also like to learn

Wouldn't it be good kits someone else on here was a really good knitter.I l knitted my daughter plain cardigans when she was little and I'm just about to attempt a dolman sweater pattern from the 80s for myself. 

Something to aim for... Have a go and see if l *** it up.

It's in Rio Grande wool bit don't think they sell that any more so will find a equivalent.

If no one else pipes up then you may become the NAS forum knitting tutor

Good luck with the sweater that you’re knitting for yourself. I’ve wished I could knit, usually when each of my children were babies and I kept seeing cute baby knits in knitting magazines. I did try to learn a few years ago, it didn’t go too well though

Did you used to knit a lot?

Interesting. My mother-in-law loves sheep/wool. She can spin wool too as they used to own sheep when my husband was a child. I think she’d love to get back into wool spinning if it were practical. 

Oh beading/jewellery making was an obsession for me massively several years back. Now it’s just a hobby and something I enjoy doing when I have time. It’s probably a good thing I still enjoy it as I’ll need to bead for the rest of my life to use up all the beads that I bought when I was full on obsessed with it!

Do you have family that are autistic then?

I don’t think I’ve seen any of the pictures you describe but one thing I did get intrigued by when I used to do the craft fairs was felting.
