when most people think of knitting sweet images of little old ladies and balls of yarn come to mind - not images of hazardous accidents.
i was calmly knitting away on my couch last evening when i had to pause for a moment and untangle my yarn. while i did this i popped the end of one needle into my mouth - it's never been a problem. when my yarn was untangled i decided to switch seating positions and in doing so i bumped the end of the needle in my mouth. it rammed up into the roof of my mouth and gouged out a nice line of it. OW!
while it was nothing that sent me to the ER it is painful. (eating frosted flakes for breakfast reminded me of this) so yeah - knitting is dangerous - be careful!
