I dreaded carrying around the fake baby doll that cries.

I have trouble coo...I crochet but I don't knit. I have trouble coordinating the two needles as opposed to the one hook. I have taught other people to crochet, including guys. And one of the best knitting designers out there is a guy.<br /><br />Btw, there are tons of videos on YouTube that show how to knit, crochet, and do any type of craft you can think of. So if Miss Pink really likes knitting that's the place to go to help her learn new techniques and save the yarn from your tender mercies. :)<br /><br />Stereotypes need to be stopped. All they do is make people whose talents lie in different directions feel bad because they can't do whatever the stereotype is about.<br /><br />When someone makes a stereotypical comment around me my response is usually "Right, and all birds can fly." When they invariably ask what I mean I tell them they are making an assumption and repeat the three lines my English teacher liked to use to demonstrate mistaken assumptions.<br /><br />All birds can fly.<br />An emu is a bird.<br />Therefore an emu can fly.Ilnara Heskenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18299242041768818364noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5329782430566577328.post-60573287735307146442014-02-18T17:30:46.716-05:002014-02-18T17:30:46.716-05:00Huzzah, and toss the yarn ball for the cat to play...Huzzah, and toss the yarn ball for the cat to play with. There was no class I despised more than "Home Economics." Yeah, only the girls HAD to take that course while the boys got "Shop." Cooking wasn't too bad since I really do like to eat, but the sorry excuse for a blouse I made was tossed out by year's end. My knitting/crocheting/tatting/sewing organ obviously never developed either.Cellophane Queenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08166797508899835493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5329782430566577328.post-18938217983888698572014-02-18T14:38:57.980-05:002014-02-18T14:38:57.980-05:00Love the last line.

I learned it in part for the novelty of it. My mom is in awe of the skill. Leah Petersenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14423139386430877271noreply@blogger.com
