Day 4: How did you learn how to knit?

My mom showed me how. Then I put it away for almost 6 years. Then, one christmas, I decided to try again. Without my mom around. I remembered nothing.  So, I got out the books and could barely make heads or tails of the whole thing. So, I grabbed a crochet book and tried to understand that. I couldn’t figure that out either. So, I got a knitting loom and did that for one scarf. By that time, I kind of understood the mechanics of the whole thing. So, I picked up knitting and tried again. After much failure, I finally got it! And, I’m hooked!
