You know, I could teach you to knit. :-) I have proteges already, and they're doing swimmingly. It would, of course, necessitate a trip north by me or south by you, but still....

The glove pattern I have is designed (sized) for a woman's hand...the designer recently did one for men, and I may buy it in a couple of weeks (she designs for a small sheep farm in Maryland). It is basically a tube with a thumb (thumb has no tip). Some time soon, I'll try a pair of full gloves or fingertip-less regular gloves.

You know, I still remember re-sewing the seam on your fur-lined leather glove back in school. :-) You were upset that your new glove had broken. I told you I could fix it, and you gave me this look of wonder and disbelief. Very cute. You were quite appreciative when I finished, too. Nice memory.
