Another granny joining the happy crowd. My name is Leonie, and I live in South Africa. I have six grandchildren. Although I am NOT that old! Just an early starter.

Addicted to yarn and needles. So completely, that I think there is no cure. (Not looking for one, either)

HI and welcome to the forum,

 

[knittaholic]

Thanks. I really like the great conversation on KP. Makes me realise I am not the only "mad" crafter in the world.

 

[druidsgirl]

Its really great and the things you will learn from others skills will astonish you. You have to be mad to knit but its satisfying.

Not only knit, but crochet, sew, embroider, etc. etc. etc. The most frustrating part of my life is that i still work full day, which really gets in the way of my crafting BIG TIME
Really wish I was old enough and rich enough to retire . Oh well, such is life!
