Inaugural Post

Hola!

Inspired by a lady I met last night who was regretting the seeming death of the knitting blog, I have decided to begin one of my own. I will, of course, write about all my other passions and activities, like books, the theatre, music etc, but knitting is the main thrust :)

So, here is a little about me:

I am a writer and general arts enthusiast and have always enjoyed making things - especially gifts for friends and family.

My journey as a knitter began on the 20th December 2009, when I walked into Liberty's of London and bought myself two balls of yarn, a set of needles and a Learn to Knit book with the intention of making a tea cosy.

A little over five months laterm my projects are in double figures and I am totally hooked. It's such an addictive hobby and I've also discovered that knitting is a fabulous way to meet new and interesting people. I am a people enthusiast too!

Well, that's enough for post #1, I think....
