Sauvee, yes, I am an obsessed knitter! Learned to knit when I was a little kid and found it the most boring thing ever. When I lived in Germany, though, everyone was knitting, and I took it up again. And haven't stopped since. I make up my own designs or borrow bits and pieces from patterns. Sometimes I do follow patterns, but not often.

Being a newbie is good. It's exciting. It's fun. And it'll become so soothing and such a way of life. And you will develop a Stash Beyond Life Expectancy, if you haven't already. 😉

SO glad you're going to go away nutless!!!!

I, alas, know nothing about Brazil. Except that Portuguese sounds amazing to me! A friend has lived all over South America. Let me send her a note and ask her if she's lived in Brazil, and how she liked it if she did.

My friend who's lived all over South America wrote back really quickly. She has never lived there, alas. However, my husband and I are going over to her house this afternoon to watch "Dr. Strangelove" with a bunch of other folks, one of whom is from Brazil. So, I will ask him all about it.

Thank you very much for that! I like Purl Soho and now have a nice book that has patterns for making knitted cloth. My arms get tired pretty quickly though and have to pile pillows on my lap for support.
