So I am teaching youngest roommate to knit.

He's 18. This leads to moments like:

"I have figured out that the purls are whoops up and knits are whoops down." I don't know what whoops are (rhyming with swoop), but it work for him.

He has a flight today. As one does, we went over his project. Him, after grumbling that knit stitch is The Worst, "I hope I get seated next to a kind grandmother. Who knows how to knit."

Good for you, and for youngest roommate! I'm sure he'll find a helpful granny, or middle-aged mom, or pretty young thing; we knitters tend to clump together. I think the yarn calls to us subliminally.
