Homo Fantasia

Because I'm simply not gay enough:

I decided to teach myself how to knit this weekend. I got this kit from the local chain craft store that has a nice manual and all the fixins (needles, row counter, gauge chart and a whole bunch of other things I have no clue what they're used for, but they're pointy and will probably come in handy if I ever get stabby.) So far, I've mastered the basic knit stitch. The purl stitch is giving me fits though. I'll eventually get it. And then it will be on to world domination. Until then, I'll continue knitting plain coasters for my amusement.

The purl stitch is just the knit stitch backwards.

I know this. I've seen pictures and read directions, yet still it defies me. Nerts!
