~~~~~~ I must be having a 'dumb' moment...does she think you are knitting with your hands and feet? I always have 2 or 3 projects going at the same time. Usually a washcloth, a charity hat and a laprobe. If I worked on just one at a time until it was finished I would become bored with it and not work on it at all after awhile, I think.
LOL, she has never been in my house either. There is one project for taking with, one for watching TV and that requires undivided attention. Then there is the "to finish" pile, we won't even talk about it.
DA
It sounds like we knit the same projects.
Most of my work is for charity. Dennis
I only ever have one item going at a time and I never have UFO's
In fact yesterday I finished knitting a scarf which my daughter had started some time ago as I couldn't stand the thought of it not being completed.
She was very happy when she saw it !
And my favourite color is green!

I though some of you might enjoy this woman`s reaction .. And i also have several works going on , for the same reasons , some are too bog to carry around , some are easy to do while watching TV, etc,, And thank you edna for mentioning you like green as well , i seem to like it more and more !!! mirjam
~~~~~ Well 'Red' is my favorite color but I've been buying a lot of green yarn in the sage family lately. Maybe I'm ready for Spring after all this snow we are still getting. The school kids missed a week of school and 2 more weeks of delays and the snow is still coming daily...just less but still enough to shovel every morning.
Edna , last year i finnished a Red Relief sweater for myself ,, Red has a charm , over the years i have had at least one red sweater in my closet. mirjam
Yes Mirjam I like red in the winter, makes me feel warmer however here in hot Sydney we don't have much use for sweaters, I usually wear a knit or crochet cardigan.
