Knitting Round Table

I love to see a group gathered around our oak table happily working and talking.   The topic of conversation this past weekend ranged wildly from children and husbands to medical issues and job stresses, dieting and exercising, cooking and eating, educational funding, aging parents,  tattoos and piercings, getting babies to sleep all night and pet adventures.  The groups contained veteran knitters and Learn to Knit Class members, moms of babies and teens, grandmothers, young single girls and empty nesters.  All were united by the knitting in their hands!  Some did not know the others while a few have been friends for years if not decades.  The projects on needles were just as varied.  I saw some simple scarves, a first sock, cardigans and pullovers, a bright hat, a baby blanket and some shawls! Conversation is at times noisy and lively and at others peaceful and quiet!  I sat for a bit to work on a sweater and thought “There is nowhere else I would rather be right now!”  Thank you knitting friends!
