Knit Nights

I have discovered that I have started to take on some of my grandmothers habits. Whether this was going to happen any way or if its a result of my Nana's death in February I don't know.

Growing up we lived with my grandparents for a few years. Some of my earliest memories are of my Nana sitting on the lounge knitting after dinner. The click click of the metals needles a back drop to whatever we were watching. ( A Country Practice and Burkes Backyard, are the two shows I remember the most.)

Now I have started doing the same thing. Once dinner is over and my son is in bed I sit and knit for an hour or so. It's really relaxing. And let's be honest there really isn't much worth watching on television these days.

I don't get to do it every night, just the nights I don't work. At the moment I am shaping the armholes on the back of the jumper I am knitting. Considering this is my first attempt at a knitted jumper, and I am a really really slow knitter, I am very impressed with myself.
