It's only knitting and it's one of the few times in your life when there are no bad consequences to a mistake.

I will always buy extra yarn. I will not try to tempt fate.

Knitters use knitting to value-add to the world.

Knitting is a boon for those of us who are easily bored. I take my knitting everywhere to take the edge off of moments that would otherwise drive me stark raving mad.

I am a person who works well under pressure. In fact, I work so well under pressure that at times, I will procrastinate in order to create this pressure.

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.

You know you knit too much when ... You will check out a book from the library just because you heard that one of the characters knits.
