In The Beginning

I can't remember exactly when I started to knit. The first item I remember completing was a scarf (of course!) made from a cream acrylic boucle yarn. My brother and I then completely destroyed it by using it to pull each other round the patio on our rollerskates..

Of course since then there have been numerous sweaters, fingerless gloves, cardigans, waistcoats, a skirt, socks, summer tops, etc. I have sold some of these now and again to people who took a fancy to them. Most of them have been donated as presents to friends and family over the years. I actually end up wearing very few of them myself - are other knitters the same?
