Yes, I have returned to knitting after regarding it as the work of the devil in my youth - it took so long to make anything and I hadn't the patience.
However, now I find it provides occupation for the hands of an evening and, like sewing garments, you get what you want in the size you want and the colour you want, which is all good. I'd like to know how to adapt/resize patterns. Any good books around?
I tried socks, and didn't get on with them, but think I will have another go sometime.
