Hi, I am a quilter first and then a knitter. I read about knitting and love this site! I learn so much from all of you. I meet with a group of friends that are both quilters and knitters . We meet once a month for quilting and then two weeks later for knitting. We enjoy each others company and have met for years. I recommend starting a group if you are not in one . We move around to each others homes and keep a calendar. We keep up with each other and help is always available.
