Knitting I can't do at all. I've learned three times and forgotten three times, which is odd, as I like spinning, I like weaving, I like embroidery and sewing. I obviously am just not cut out for anything that involves knots.
I would swap knitting for shirts, except that I already have a frock coat and posh waistcoat (for Andrew), a robe a l'Anglaise and matching petticoat (for Rose), two sets of pocket hoops and a woman's riding habit (for me) to make first. Also a full nun's outfit, a pair of trousers and an under-dress for Regia. And that will take me a couple of years, I'm sure!
