Namaskaram - salutations

Namaskaram - salutations I dedicate my blog to the enormous art lovers across the globe I love knitting so much that I have started a blog for knitting.Knitting is a job that I will like to go on.Through knitting I breathe life into many people's life. It is knitting time. When I want to relax I do it with knitting. I am a knitting buff.I love to do knitting on various topics. There is no way that you can stop me doing knitting.I am born with a flare for knitting.My face brightens once I touch the knitting needs.The electronic media has helped knitting to travel across the world.Every stitch made will talk about how knitting has influenced people.I have done some and would like to share it with you. Some patterns have been taken from free knitting sites. Some designs have been created by me. Many a times I have modified the patterns to suite my requirements. Finally I can say that I breathe knitting, I talk knitting, I walk knitting - a total knitaholic

Legend of Little Statesmanly

Legend of Little Statesmanly
A man named Statesmanly lived in a country called Vietnam. His stature was dwarf like not more than the size of a thumb. Even though he was small, he was an intelligent man. Hence the king of the land offered him a ministerial post in his kingdom. Suddenly a dispute arose between China and Vietnam and the king did not know how to solve the matter. So he sent Statesmanly to China to settle the matter. Accordingly Statesmanly went to China, but as soon he reached China people started to make fun of his built. They started to call me as a dwarf. Statesmanly did not bother to the comments he received and went ahead to meet the Chinese Emperor. The Emperor, who was seated in a dragon throne, was surprised to see a man of this size and remarked how a tiny man would be able to solve this big problem. To this Statesmanly replied that his king would send big men to solve big problems and small persons to solve small problems. Statesmanly said, he was sent because the king felt the problem was a small matter. At once the Chinese Emperor was impressed by Statesmanly reply. in no time they both solved the problem peacefully.
