A boy and his yarn


In an attempt to distract from the fact that I haven't finished the scarf I've been working on I present my nephew here photographed with his first ball of yarn. I went shopping with my SIL and the munchkins and I gave this to him to hold while we were shopping in the store - when it was time to leave he didn't want to give it up so I bought him his very first yarn (Lion Brand Suede in Olive) he held it in his car seat while we drove to the next store and played with it when we got back to my house. He can even say yarn (he can't say my name but I'm choosing not to believe he likes the yarn better than me). After a few strands were pulled loose we wound it on the ball winder and he took it home with him.

Indoctrinate them early, so they will be your friends later on. :) Maybe when he's a little older he'll be begging you to teach him to knit. My eight-year old nephew is fascinated by my spinning wheel and knitting but he doesn't want to try them because only girls knit. Arg. If I could teach my husband to knit and change my BIL's perception about knitters then maybe my nephew would like to learn until then, I'll just keep fascinating him with the yarn.

Can he BE any cuter?!! You must be one proud Auntie. It won't be long until he's knitting you socks.
