A poll. Even grammar_whores seems to be split!

First, happy late birthdays to Ariana and Alia, twenty-five and seventeen (...wow, we've known each other a while, haven't we?), respectively. ^_^

So, I ask your opinion: is the past tense of knit knit or knitted?

Hung out with Nigel on Tuesday, took him to Wasabi Boy. Lynda was coincidentally lunching at the same time.

Inventory Wednesday. Yay, counting.

Bummed it yesterday because Sandy got sick. D: Started Tales of Symphonia and the notpron riddle. Alex, Tosh and I managed to get to lvl23, although Tosh says we did it wrong? Warky's past lvl100. WTW.

Close today, open tomorrow, both with Evie. Pay day! And hopefully, I can get to see the papers in my file without one of the Karens looking over my shoulder.....

I think it's "knit."

"I knit you a sweater" sounds better than "I knitted you a sweater."

knitted is a word, and is acceptable english

oh, and we did......after speaking with warky, it has something to do with the phone in the lower right hand corner of the pic...I can explain more when u get on

technically, either is correct. but knit is the more accepted way to say it (just like fish and fishes)

[omgimsuchadork.livejournal.com]

Fish is the plural of the animal when they are all of the same kind. Fishes is more than one kind of fish.

it can be used either way...you could say last year I knit a sweater for shaina....or
In the past I have knitted sweaters for shaina....

it all depends
