My blogs are works in progress. That is, I often re-read a post, which might be listed on my stats. page, as recently read by someone else. Invariably, I find an error, usually minor, in the spelling or the syntax, which I then correct.<\/p>\n

Today, someone read this post – Content Marketing Tools Can Be Fun<\/a>. It reminded me that there is this really cool site that will generate blog topics for you. Since I was writing about knitting again, I decided to key the word knitting into the idea generator and let the fun begin. Here are some random topics from the generator, with comments \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

1. How Knitting Makes You A Better Lover – Knitting is not just the domain of grandmothers and even if it were, grandmothers can be lovers too. I was always fascinated by the concept that some people knit underwear – very sexy underwear. If you were at all timid about going into a lingerie shop, you might just want to buy a few balls of gorgeous silk yarn and knit yourself a “Teddy” – just saying.<\/p>\n

2. Unbelievable Knitting Success Stories – There really are some amazing “things” that people have done with knitting and crochet. Some people have covered cars and buses with hand knit pieces. One woman even knit a house cozy. Yes, she covered an entire bungalow with knitted squares. That’s not to say that finishing your first ever knitting project is anything less than an amazing accomplishment!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

\n3. Why Knitting Should Be One Of The 7 Deadly Sins – Sloth comes to mind. It’s not that knitters are a lazy lot; it’s just that when we sit down to knit, it’s really difficult to break that concentration to get up and make dinner or clean the house, for example.<\/p>\n

4. Why Do People Think That Knitting is a Good Idea? – I have always maintained that, if you have a skill, however small, you have the means of earning a living or augmenting a pension, through sheer industriousness. Many people have supported whole families by knitting.<\/p>\n

5. Ways Your Mother Lied To You About Knitting – My mother crocheted. She could knit, but preferred the fact that with crochet, you only had to keep track of one stitch at a time. I would see these gorgeous fair isle sweaters and decide that I wanted to knit one. My mother would say, “Oh, they’re far too difficult.” I was almost 40 before I attempted fair isle knitting. It is still my favourite!!<\/p>\n

Have a awesome day!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
