I have never been fond of knitting. I am self-taught under duress. When I was a senior at Drexel University, I decided to design sweaters and a knit skirt for my senior collection. I was able to use a knitting machine for the sweaters (which I loved!), but the yarn for the skirt was just to curly and loopy to work on a machine. So I bought a book and spent many hours knitting and unraveling and knitting again. I finished the skirt, but decided that knitting was not for me. That was until I discovered this on Pinterest. It is called arm knitting and you use chunky yarn. I made a scarf and actually had fun doing it. The total project took 20 minutes. Fun and fast? That is a win!
