Field Trip Day....


I went on a field trip with the 6th grade band students to hear the Oregon Symphony play. It was a very nice day. My group of 8 kids was extremely well behaved. I knit on the bus and two boys in my group were fascinated. They thought knitting was very interesting. They wanted to know how to start. They thought I knit fast (LOL!). They thought knitting looked complicated. I was tickled that they were even interested and that knitting was a good thing in their eyes.
