So, I had some fun today taking this great quiz over at the Knitting Brain site and I thought I'd share my results. This would be ME:
"The Logical Knitter"
"You approach knitting logically and methodically. You'll enjoy reading knitting reference books and find satisfaction in using the best knitting techniques. A book such as No Sheep For You which celebrates the geeky side of knitters will likely appeal to you." (Can you believe the accuracy of these quiz results? It's amazing).
"You like to understand the logic behind how thing work. You strive for perfection in your finished knitting. Many successful professional knitters fall into this category, in fact many have a scientific background e.g. Stefanie Japel. (No, I do not have a scientific background but I am a bit of perfectionist when it comes to my knitting.)
Don't let your perfectionism spoil your enjoyment of knitting. Hand knits won't always be perfect, but knitting is a craft where the opportunities for learning are endless. Your logical approach means you can refine knitting patterns and as your knowledge increases you could produce well designed, logical patterns." (Good Advice, right?)
"Don't be afraid to experiment with colour and pattern, after all, knitting can always be unraveled! You may lack confidence in your ability to be more creative. A knitwear design reference book could well give you the boost you need." (Indeed they have).
Anyway, you should pop on over there just for fun and take the quiz yourself. Let me know if they pegged you as well as they did me!
I got labeled an "artistic knitter". Which makes sense. Though I'll have to pass on their suggestion to try felting, since I'm wool-free by necessity as well.

Interesting! They pegged me as a "contented knitter", which is pretty accurate. I'm all about using knitting for relaxation and probably don't challenge myself enough.

Amazing how different we all are and yet we all love the same craft. Artistic, contented? I would have been happy with those labels too!
