If you can get past the impatience of learning to knit: knitting is a great way to deal with the situations that require patience. (Waiting in lines or doctor’s offices, etc.)

He does have black ears now!

I decided he did!

Thank you!

Yes!!!

So pretty!!!!

I am using a “marching bear” chart from Ravelry. But not an actual pattern for the hats. I keep changing them up a bit. The three rows came out a bit too “tall”. 2/2

I love the sweater!!! I really want to make my dog a sweater. But I am so obsessed with hats at the moment, that I haven’t gotten to it. Given my track record, I expect the allure of knitting these hats will wear off at some point, and I will move on to something else. 1/2

Oops - forgot the photo!

I do really love knitting with yarn that feels soft, though.

I know the feeling. One time my dad, who had severe macular degeneration at that time, told me I looked like I had gained weight. Thanks Dad!!! 😜 Glad your mom is doing better, though!

I fully support you. We need to take solace in our crafting and create. They can’t take that away, too.

xoxoxoxoxo I know you are every bit as talented. 😘

Thank you! I’m recovering from foot surgery so I have been knitting obsessively for a few weeks!

Knit picks interchangeable needed are my favorite. It’s an investment at first, but you will be so happy to have them. They sell handy storage cases to keep them organized, also.
