The chances of running out of yarn on a project are directly related to the difficulty that you will have getting more.

You don't knit because you are patient. You are patient because you knit

When people see me knitting, I tell them I'm a knitter. Not the sort of knitter they may have run into before, but a passionate, constant, deliberate knitter. I knit everyday, all the time, everywhere I go.

I explain at the parties that I believe knitting is a transformative and intriguing act that can change the life and brain of the person doing it, and that knitting is a perfect metaphor for life and insight into some better ways through it.

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

There is practically no activity that cannot be enhanced or replaced by knitting, if you really want to get obsessive about it.

just because something is fun doesn't mean it's a waste of time.
