Knitter's POLL

Oh my....I had no idea...Parises everywhere!

I'm sorry you're feel> Paris, Illinois,

I was just sitting here wondering what made me knit with the right needle under my arm, as no-one I know does it like that, when I remembered that it came from necessity. I started knitting in high school, and would knit at every opportunity, even alking from one class to another. I used to have the ball of wool resting in a pocket, thread coming from the inside (there's another poll for you), and then I could walk and knit. LOL Must've been a sight!

Don't know how to quote text to which I'm replying, so I'll cut and paste....

I truly DID LOL on reading this 'cause since a couple weeks ago when Mirjam told about knitting while standing on the train (or was it the bus?) I've been wondering where she kept the yarn!!! Eve

Giggle ,,,, Eve ,,, i kept the ball in the little bag which holds the knitting , bag hang on my arm , ball of wool inside bag , long thread cpmes out and i knit it , next time thread will see the inside of the bag it is already knitted... Ps ,, sadly i have to say that last week i have NOT knitted much , i spend time telling artists to send pics and texts ,,,, Hope to resume knitting soon... mirjam

Continental/German -- Picking.

Want to learn the other way sometime as I hear it is easier to do FairIsle if you can do both. Just haven't gotten that ambitious yet.
