the could be annoying habit of artists and humanity in general

I am under the belief, through persuasion and experience, that artisty people are much more likely to get addicted to things. My latest addiction: knitting.

My addiction started when my gram showed me how on Friday, my mum gave me a needlework book yesterday which spurred me on to experiment with different stitches and as of 1:40 am last night I am half way through a scarf - a wonky one but still a lovely scarf.
