Small needles

I can knit on small needles.
I've been watching my mother and sister knit on small needles for years! They crank out socks faster than I can make my bed. I watch them knit on those teeny tinny needles and my hands hurt. Just give me size 10 and I'll knit anything! this past winter my mother made me the most beautiful fingerless gloves ... the envy of all my friends ! I love them, wear them every day. I love them so much I wanted them in 10 different colors. You think my mother was going to make me 10 more pairs ... NOT ! Guess I better start knitting on small needles.
Well , mom let me borrow her double pointed 000 zero's and a way I went. I didn't know someone could swear so much. Getting started on those double pointed needles just about killed me. I finished my first double pointed fingerless glove!
Ugh now it's time to make glove number 2!
