I'm a jack of all trades. I can do many things, but nothing well, except cook gourmet food and teach.
However, my daughter-in-law is very talented in many areas. She can practice law in both New York and Connecticut, is a certified scuba diving instructor, a certified dog trainer, a certified doula, a certified breast feeding nurse, a published writer, a baker, and a knitter.
She took knitting lessons when pregnant with my ice princess and has made so many beautiful items.
When I last saw her in late November, she was making up her own design for this sweater. As you can see, it is done and being modeled by the ice princess.
Are you a knitter, too? Do do have any talents?

What a beautiful little girl and a gorgeous sweater. No I don't knit and I really don't have many talents. I have never been a crafty person.

Your daughter in law sounds very accomplished! Wow, she knitted that sweater? That's awesome! I think I've only learned to crochet - and even with that I've never done an actual project before. I'm a dabbler in many areas . . . yep, jack of all trades, master of nothing 
. But I do think I have/had some talent in skating (in comparison to other adults anyway), creativity in visual arts, and making people like me

I like to knit, although I mostly make flat things--nowhere near good enough to make an adorable sweater like that. It;s nice that you have such a good relationship with your daughter-in-law. My parents adored my husband, and he adored them. I only met his once because they live in Japan, but they were quite nice to me.

@DianneN - Yes, they passed away, unfortunately. I miss them, but I"m lucky I had them in the first place.

I'm not. I don't think I have talents. I wish I can also knit. Nice sweater worn by a pretty princess!

It is a beautiful sweater knitted by your dear daughter in law. She seems to have lots of talents and you would be proud of her.
I do not know how to knit but my wife knows knitting very well. When we got engaged, she gifted me a sweater knitted by her and it used to feel quite warm wearing that sweater.

@DianneN - Lately she has not made any sweater. Now a days mobile phone keeps her busy and she forgets knitting, specially in winters.

I have no talents. Really it's just that I don't have the patience for such things as sewing and knitting..
So you cook gourmet food? Can I come over for dinner?

@DianneN When I have free time I don't have a clue what to do with it. I suppose I should take up a hobby. I tried crochet once but as I said, I don't have the patience. I like to read, but have to have the time to finish the book in one sitting as I'm not able to put it down.
Take out is what we generally have.. I dislike cooking!

Lol! You got me. I am knitting while mylotting now. The internet is so slow that I knit while blogging. I am also a jack of all trades but no specialty except that I am creative to many things. I designed my own knitted pullover many years ago when internet was not invented.
Your daughter -in-law is a superwoman. That's a beautiful pullover worn by your pretty princess.
