Proof that I'm a beer short of a six-pack



I'm knitting with black yarn, I'm wearing black pants, and it's dark. If you're a knitter, you know why this is stupid. If you're not, this clip art gives you a pretty good idea of what I'm dealing with it. Pass me a beer.

  7. Why didn't I think of it sooner -- you need glow in the dark needles!

  8. Step away from the beer!!!!! LOL My grandmother hated knitting with black, but still made me the HUGE 80s sweater I asked for. Now that I'm a knitter, I understand what a feat that was. I wish I had appreciated it enough at the time.
