Anyone got cravings for . . . . knitting???


Hey mummies-to-be!
I have had one really peculiar craving . . .
I really want to knit!
Went in search of needles and wool this evening and couldn't find any - gutted!
Will be on a mission this weekend to find needles, wool and maybe a pattern for some cute booties or a little cardigan!
anyone else had any wierd "cravings"????

LMAO!! With my first I had the urge to knit as well!!
I ended up making a scarf big enough for one of her barbies!!
It was a wonderful thought in theory though... I am just not very good at it!
Maybe I will have a go at it again this time.

Ohhhhhhhh girl, do I ever have a list of things to knit!!!
I'm a knitter to start off with, but now I'm picking out all kinds of patterns, from blankets to mitties, to booties, and sweaters, etc... My poor DH is expecting a tuque and scarf for winter, we chose the yarn and pattern 2 months ago: secretly I just want to start working on the baby's stuff, but I'll be a good wifey and make him his winter gear!

i'm sure barbie was delighted!!!!!
i wouldn't mind only i hated knitting when i was younger!
we were forced to do it in primary school. i was always crap at it and the teacher used to give out to me so in the end my mum used to do my knitting for me every week!
