She is not only creative but also meticulous in her stitches. Her knitting is even and looks like a machine knit. Being surrounded like such perfect knits, my standard is, needless to say, very high.
The problem is I cannot reach the standard. The worse problem is I cannot be happy when I cannot meet the standard. Every time I look at my knitting stitches, I get disgusted. I cannot tell you how many times I have undone stitches. Now some may say, "What's wrong with the stitches?" and others may say, "Stitches like that make it look more home-made." Still, my pursuit for perfect knit stitches goes on....
I have tried all the "Continental Style", "English Style", and "Combined Method." I have tried different angles on pulling the yarn. I have also tried different angles on inserting the right needle. Yes, I have become obsessed and geeky on this matter.
I will be a happy and content knitter when I finally master the even knitting like my mom.
MOM! u aren't bad at knitting!.
