Accept No Excuses

Knit Rocking Chair

No doubt you have heard, "I don't have time to knit" from your friends as many times as I have. Like me, you probably try to knit while watching TV or in a waiting room; thus, using time that would normally have been wasted.

Still our friends insist that they don't have time to pick up their needles. Clever inventors have created the means for those individuals to knit with minimal effort.

Now those who want to relax and read the evening paper before dinner can actually knit a few rows to a stocking hat. (Note the red object about the man's head. As he rocks, the chair knits a stocking hat.) A video demonstration can be seen here.

For those whose day simply doesn't have enough hours to squeeze in some knitting time, this clock might be the solution. However, even the clock has its limits and knits only one stitch an hour.

Clearly, knitting can be done by those who have motivation to create: accept no excuses.
