While it's true that knitting has not been around for very long, and that its past is quite bunched up in knots, pun intended; one thing remains. That thing which had made knitting an instant hit when it was invented and makes it popular today is its sheer simplicity. With two sticks and a ball of yarn, you can literally make anything; sweaters, gloves, socks, scarves, bonnets and hats, bags, and so much more. Knitwear is as just as popular as ever before. Even science has jumped on the bandwagon. Engineers are now using knitting techniques for metallic shields for hoses and doctors are starting to knit nylon arteries used to transplant organs. One thing is for sure; Knitting may not have a solid past but it has a bright future ahead of it.
