Hello world!
Hello indeed! If someone would have told me a year ago that I would be paid for writing a weblog about knitting, I would have laughed in their face. And yet, here I am, writing about my favorite thing in the world (as unfortunately cliche as that sounds). Woohoo, I say! Woohoo!!
As the title suggests, I am passionate knitting. So passionate, in fact, that in my over-exuberance I accidentally hit the back button and erased my first entry! Woo… aw crap…
Also to be noted, I make extensive use of parentheticals and end many sentences with “…” in my effort to convey the actual way I speak. English majors, beware!
But in essence this blog will be me gushing about yarn, needles, and patterns, as well as showing off my finished projects, and ranting about my distaste of the finishing process. I might throw in a review or two, or maybe even an interview if I get really punchy… but be forewarned, I may also occasionally delve into spinning, crocheting, embroidery, or my family, just because I do have other things going on that usually coincide or correlate to my knitting. Along that vein if anyone wants to know more about me personally, you can look me up on Myspace. My screenname is “Keri the Sheep.”
So, this is Knitting Passion. My outlook is that if you are truly passionate about something, you should throw your whole being into it. For me, passion is creating a vanity license plate that contains the word KNIT. Passion is googling “knitting blog” and realizing I have already bookmarked the top 10 results. Passion is creating an entire garment from one piece of string using nothing but 2 pointy sticks and the knowledge in your brain. Woohoo, my friends. Woo. Hoo.
