As if I couldn’t be more old in the eyes of the youth.
Knitting is awesome. I say as a 83-year old trapped in a 18 year old body. As I drink my sweet strawberry tea in a knitted cardigan. While I don't know anyone under fifty who knits, I know everyone has at least a hobby. Knitting is mine.
And what better way to express my love, than through video?

I wanted a cat hat with cat ears so I made another hat. A Kit Kat Hat. I love it, it's adorable and no one can have it unless you fight me. You will lose.
Why did I name it Georgina's Hat? Named after Georgina Paws, the youngest female in the litter of kittens. She died tragically last week. We woke up on day and found torn in half by a stray dog at night. Rest in peace, angel. I'm sorry I was too scared to hold you.
It's a recurring joke around my circle of friends that I'm just a grandmother stuck in a seventeen year old body. Always knitting a hat or a scarf, or some weird item to give or keep. In May, I decided to venture into something I have never done before. Design my own hat pattern.
"No, Bash. It is not cool to develop your own knitting pattern based on a fictional character from the Marvel Cinematic Universe...It's just dorky, and a little sad." Said my good friends.
Well, jokes on them because the hat came out pretty darn cute.
On a usual day, I read, knit and drink tea. This routine has kept me sane throughout life and I don't intend on stopping. After all, it does provide me some great hand-knitted things like this over-sized hipster hat.
