    Okay, if I seriously didn’t know better, he actually sounds kind of convincing 🙂 Your scarves run rings around this dude lol! Our oldest says, “That was interesting, but I know that was totally NOT a scarf. Maybe I would go to the store and buy one instead if I were him!”

      teeheehee… I love that his delivery is so completely calm and convincing 🙂 Your oldest is quite wise at such a young age 😉 and I totally agree that he ought to set aside his knitting sticks and stick with buying pre-knit scarves ❤

    oh wow…. is he drunk? that has got to be the most absurd thing I have ever seen.
    Its amusing that he assumes that it’s so easy.

    Although I must admit to putting pegs on the ends of my double pointed needles to keep the stitches from falling off. I never thought to use tape and glue.

      HAhaha… I’d say his tape ‘n glue technique is fairly drunk with audacious inspiration! Your pegged dpns, on the other hand, will have saved actual stitches ❤

    Too cool! I am so glad he is not an expert mechanic. That is too perfect an example of a self-assured expert. They are EVERYWHERE!!! The phrase ” All you have to do..” is a dead give away! Thanks for sharing this! Whahaha
