nerd knits

How do you start one of these things? Where do you begin? Writing for an audience that you know doesn’t exist (yet…dear God, let it be a matter of yet). What do you say? An introduction seems so cheesy; but starting in the middle of nowhere, as if you have always been here, seems…abrupt? Fallacious, at the very least.

I almost feel I should defend the rightful existence of my little corner of the ‘net. I am (I think) mostly articulate. I have developed an unexpected burning passion for knitting. I read the blogs of other knitters, and I have come to think of them as the cool kids that I hope will let me sit with them at lunch. I just have to come up with something witty to say.

Oh, and I have a cat. I’m not sure why, but that’s important.

So, consider this your awkward introduction. Hi, I’m new here. Please don’t throw rocks at me.
