why do i knit?

Today was a short but exausting day. Cap'n Boots will be in class for another couple of hours too. I am feeling so lazy. I was wondering though, while I was in the shower. Why I want to be a Knitter.

• I want to be a knitter because knitters create beautiful things out of almost nothing.
• because knitters are generous
• the person who got me to knit was knitting a hat for somone else (me)
  
• knitters will give away books, yarn, and advice to anyone who is just starting out
• or to anyone who just love yarn
• because it gives me peace
• keeps my hands busy so my mind can be still
• because I am part of a community, a community that streches all over the planet.

And because I can!

I am going to attempt to write more wordy posts and to be a little more philosphical on here, but don't expect good spelling.

My Goals As a Knitter

1. a sweater that fits
2. baby clothes
   
3. designing my own patterns
4. wool to garment, spun, dyed, knit. all by me
5. i wanna have cool contests, so i can share all my yummy yarn
6. i wanna have yummy yarn
7. I want to gain SABLE status, not duffel status

I'm sure ther's more, but I'm gonna knit now.
