I was sitting in a railway station last night, waiting for my connection (on my way home from work), knitting 'Leo'. A young boy - about 12 years old - wandered over and watched for a few minutes. I don't mind 'cos I'm quite used to the odd looks that people give me.
"Are you knitting a jumper?" he said.
"Yes."
A lady sitting nearby asked him if he had never seen anyone knitting before.
"No, " he said. "How do you get all those patterns to stay in?"
'Leo' is basically just a wide rib pattern.
So I explained that it was just based on two stitches and he asked me to show him. I just thought that was really sweet.
I doubt if he's a new convert to knitting but he was very interested.
