    You can knit,...

    Thank you. But I have to say of all the hand-crafts I do,.. I think knitting has got to be the easiest! It's merely pulling loops through loops, either front to back, or the reverse (purls). And keeping them on the needles! lol

    After that, it's just a bit of manipulation of those same stitches,.. and after all, if children and little old ladies around the world can manage it, most anyone can do it, too. Seriously, you can, too.

    If you wish/want to, then do it.

    Happy to assist, if you need some guidance.

    Getting down off my soap box,..
    Best,
    Doug
