It is a little known fact that much like birds, who can always find north, knitters can always find yarn.

With great effort comes great gratification.

The best reason for a knitter to marry is that you can't teach the cat to be impressed when you finish a lace scarf.

It is some kind of miracle that all knitting is constructed of only two stitches: knit and purl. Sure, you throw in some yarn overs, and sometimes you knit the stitches out of order, but when it really comes down to it, knitting is simplicity. The most incredible gossamer lace shawl ... the trickiest aran ... a humble sock ... each just made with knit and purl.

...the number one reason knitters knit is because they are so smart that they need knitting to make boring things interesting.

I will continue to freak out my children by knitting in public. It's good for them.

It took me years and years of trial efforts to work out that there is absolutely no knitting triumph I can achieve that my husband will think is worth being woken up for.
