Absolutely the first craft i enjo is knitting! i've learned knitting since chilhood, Around me all the women knit : my mother, granmothers, aunt, etc...mostly by necessity and tradition, very usefull sweaters, hats, scarfs, socks...woolen breeches to warm our youngs stomach under pleated skirts in winter!! Very early I wanted to make new things, such as cables and lace, and all my life 've knitted for us six, my husband, four children and me, and was always fascinated to try new stitches, yarns ans now... woawh! internet open me to a new amazing knitting world, and discover so so much possibilities! yarns from all over the world..such as icelandic wool, south american alpacas, silk, linen, and also other french yarn producers i was ignoring....it's a real and permanent happiness. But always a little difficulty with language, because i do not very good understand English spoken by Americans, the speed and the accent, etc. in the videos...but it is also a good means to perfect my English, I hope to travel in Iceland and in the Scotland next year for tricot journeys Other craft I enjoy practice : sewing, but not as a passion like knitting! Ans this fall i 'll beginning learning aquarelle for painting flowers and plants, and many things of nature in witch i live ans i so much love!
