My younger sister taught me how to knit last Thanksgiving. I’m not very good at it, and had to learn “backward” since I’m left-handed. At my current rate of knitting, I will complete my first knit item (a scarf) in the winter of 2020.

But it’s occassionally kinda fun.

I admit that I learned it on a lark, and hope to someday use knowledge of knitting to woo women.
