How I Roll

Jennifer: Did you knit this afghan?

Me: Yep.

J: How old were you?

Me: Oh, I dunno, in my teens.

J: How did you get it so long? That's crazy!

Me: Circular needle. The stitches all bunch up in the middle. I had no idea how many stitches there were - that was supposed to be the short end. Took forever.

J: How long?

Me: Jesus. Huh. Five years? I started when I was like, 13.

J: So not really in your teens, but when you were a teenager.

Me: Yes. Precisely.
