Another element of tranquility was added into my life Friday afternoon when I learned how to knit on my lunch break. In the works right now are a tiny blue scarf for an un-named object, and a tiny pink scarf for my moms new puppy, Daisy. Pictures to come. The girls at work and I formed a knitting circle we like to call "Stitch and Bitch" where every other Friday we get together during lunch and knit (or crochet, or quilt, or whatever) and bitch/chat/gossip. It is more therapeutic than I had imagined which is wonderful. I chose this logo as our official flag:

Yes?
I've heard of it, yes. I think I should own it and hopefully soon I will! :)
Wait, on your lunch break? Is it seriously that easy? For some reason I have always imagined that all things needle-and-yarn took months to learn and have always been put off by the idea because I don't have the time.
Yeah, actually! I picked it up pretty quick, and so did another girl I work with who had never learned before. By the end of our lunch hour she and I were knitting away! It does help to have a good teacher, and we definitely had the best. The majority of the girls that learned from a book said it took them way longer to pick it up, so I would definitely recommend having someone teach you if possible.
Lets knit together! :D
